Recreate the face of a 4,000-year-old dog
Forensic artist Amy Thornton created a realistic model of dog head, including muscles, skin and even feathers.
While previous reconstruction works were created from the Neolithic period, this is the first time researchers have tried to recreate an animal from this point.
The image of a 4,000-year-old dog is restored.
Thorton, at Dundee University, said this restructuring is a particularly interesting project, because it marks the first time using forensic methods commonly used to replicate human faces and pressures. Use these for an animal skull.
This presents a series of challenges because there are fewer dog skull-related data than humans.
The initial reconstruction was created in clay using traditional methods, with 3D prints of the skull as the basis for building anatomy.
The sculptures were then cast in silicone and finished with the same fur as a European gray wolf.
Researchers hope that reconstruction will help clarify animals and their role in ancient times.
Dr. Alison Sheridan, who is in charge of the main archaeological research of the Scottish Department of History and Archeology at the Scottish National Museum, said: 'The size of a large hunting dog, which is reminiscent of one European gray wolf, dog in Cuween has much to say ".
