The face of the Neanderthal woman, who lived 75 thousand years ago, is revealed

Scientists have created an incredible reconstruction of what a Neanderthal woman would have looked like when she was alive.

It is based on the flattened and fragmented remains of a skull, the bones of which were so soft when excavated that they had the consistency of "a well-dipped biscuit".

The researchers first had to harden the fragments before assembling them creating a "3D" model. 

The remodel features in a new BBC Studios documentary for Netflix called Secrets of the Neanderthals, which examines what we know about our long-lost evolutionary cousins, who went extinct around 40,000 years ago.

"It's incredibly exciting and a massive privilege really to be able to work with the remains of any individual from that period," said Emma Pomeroy./ CNA
