This video demonstrates the process of facial reconstruction completed by Museum Specialist Gay Malin. The video provides a stepbystep description of how artists go about rebuilding the features of a longdead person, based only on the shape of their skull. This video focuses on the reconstruction of facial features from a skull of a woman who died 300 years ago in Albany. Her remains were excavated from the cemetary associated with the Albany Almshouse (18261926). The video provides a lot of interesting detail about how the artist decides on unknowable features like ear shape and body fat measures.
