An 18-year-old girl who lived in Greece 7,000 years ago and was unearthed by archaeologists in Theopetra cave, near the city of Trikala, has had her face reconstructed and is about to officially introduce herself to the public... Dawn (Avgi in Greek) is a woman from the Mesolithic era (7,000 BC) who lived in the Theopetra cave, according to Athens University professor Manolis Papagrigorakis; who has invested a great deal of time and learning in order to bring Greeks “face to face” with their ancestors...
Papagrigorakis' team is also working on the reconstruction of the skull of a girl from Feres in Magnesia prefecture who was about 5.5 years old when she died in the 5th century BC. Her remains were discovered at an unlooted marble tomb, and she has been named Idyle. Finally, another of the team's projects includes the reconstruction of a "microbial map" of Classical-era Greece.
