Cleopatra's Face

[wc]

Have you folks chexcked out the news bit from today 12/17/2008 about the computer generated face of Cleopatra? What do you think? I think it's probably the closest representation we'll ever have. (unless her mummy is found and her face reconstruted from her skull) However, I don't think it's always best to say that this and thus image is the best yet, since we really have no way to prove it. All that aside, I think doing a computer reconstruction is probably a fun and creative exercise, regardless of what Cleopatra actually looked like. What do you think?

Thank you RickJ for the website  

Hi wc I enjoyed looking upon the last Pharaoh of Egypt's face.  I believe you are right in admitting that we might never know for sure what she really looked liked.  I want to believe our science delievers the best possible look on such a powerful historical ruler.
