A mind-blowing 3D reconstruction has revealed what a Stone Age woman looked like 4,000 years ago.

It’s now on display at Västernorrlands Museum in Sweden and is based on skeletal remains that were found in 1923.

The remains of the Stone Age woman were found next to the body of a seven-year-old boy who may have been her son.

Scientists have reconstructed her after all this time and designed her expression as if she was watching over her child....
