This is what the Trojan War was fought over
I’m no anthropologist but wouldn’t her skin be a lot darker? This feels like people making depictions of Jesus look like a modern European person.
Like everything in life, tl;dr it’s complicated, but no doubt she got a little more sunkissed lmao.
Yeah, one thing I’ve learned about human genetics is that the markers for skin color are wonky and unpredictable.
I just feel like it’d be safer to assume she was a lot darker given the recency of African diaspora, but again I am far from an expert so I could be totally off.
Nobody would be this mean about her appearance if she wasn’t being lit in the most unflattering possible way
Today, some women have very masculine features. You can find some of them on fashion show runways, for whatever reason.
This, by chance, is a skull with such features. This doesn’t mean all women then had masculine features, the same way not all women today do.
Or maybe the scientist just sucks at portraits
High fashion models aren’t meant to be facially attractive. That’s what Victoria secret is for. High fashion requires a body as canvas (so be very very thin). A fierce look and walk.
Anyway, how is your sex life?
Idk about this team tbh. Avgi is certainly not impressed.
well they always taught us in history class how greece was the hi mark of ancient culture.
slow clap
It’s OK, she’s actually a 9000-year-old shapeshifting dragon.
this feels like one of those shrink wrapped dinosaur situations. like they arent doing a good job estimating how her soft tissue would have been distributed at all. why are her eyebrows so low, why are her cheeks so lean, why is there so much tissue below her lips, why is her hairline so high and with a bit of a widows peak? it feels like they put a mans tissue distribution on a womans frame completely uncritically and called it good.
edit: i think the harsh drop lighting theyre displaying this under is making it way worse too. it might not look quite as bad with softer more diffuse lighting.
Yeah this looks completely wrong to me… Like sure, they would look very different, but they wouldn’t be indistinguishable from men. Even from an evolutionary perspective that’s just silly.
Even today we have women that have “facial bone structures we associate with masculinity” as they describe. It’s not like we are working blind and trying to reconstruct a dinosaur or an extraterrestrial. Though maybe for some scientists, women are similarly rare.
I looked up some examples of “masculine women faces” online in 2 minutes. Even though they look “masculine”, they clearly don’t look like Gigachad or whatever this reconstruction is.
example photos
Would they look very different though? Even 9000 years ago, they would still have mostly human DNA.
All three are beautiful. And in other news, I’m a gay enby.
I’m a sidelined former passionate Ally, can you explain to me how an enby can be “gay” and not “pan?”
If this is a teenage girl, how the hell the grown up men looked like? I mean my masculinity is already hurt by this image alone.
not to long ago you were “ancient” with 40
This guy right here, his name is Ötzi. He died around his 50s. 5000 years ago. In the high Alpes. No, not due to old age. He was actually murdered. He was not considered ancient, just old. It’s speculated he was already crippled due to past wounds - both fresh and old, and yet he was fine and rocking at the altitude of over 3000 meters… until someone penetrated him with an arrow.
No that isn’t a counterargument to your theory, as a single special example is never enough to discard any statement. I don’t need to, because it’s already well documented how wrong this perception of aging is. I just want to show you just how durable people were even in the truly ancient times.
Wrong, in those years people also reached the age of today’s people. The myth that they had a lower lifespan was due to the high mortality of newborns and a violent society that lowered the average general age.
Well yeah and back then everybody was ancient
There are several historic persons which lived more than 80 Years. The people then was genetically identic to the people today and with the same life expentancy, same as today, this depends naturally on their life style. The average lifespan of the people in WWI also was less than 30 Years.
9000 is a really fucking old teenager.
That’s like being Gandalf of all teenagers.
“A wizard is never late, nor is she early, she arrives preci…”
Oh shut up Helen, you knew I was going to wear my leopard print and you wore yours today just so I would look like I’m copying you! Our friendship is so over!
Is was leopard skin back then.
and she looks really good for 9000
They rounded down, she’s actually 9017 years old.
Just so Republicans can feel it’s okay to want to rape her.
I can suddenly see why you would fight a war over Cleopatra or Helen of Troy if this is the average local option.
Hair is such a big part of how people see attractiveness. Can somebody put this through a better hairstyle in a face app filter and post results?
I think someone mixed up the storage, and they accidentally recreated John Travolta from the Battlefield Earth movie?
This is from the movie about the making of Battlefield Earth with John Travolta played by Val Kilmer
It’s been a while since I’ve studied it, but IIRC skeletons of early humans show in general more traits we view as masculine, like stronger chins and a more jutting brow line, even in female skeletons. It was even more pronounced in male skeletons, but this is still pretty mild sexual dimorphism even among great apes (think male vs female gorillas, for example).
Though, even being 9000, they would still be considered a “modern” human, correct? Having evolved roughly 300k years ago, I would think their traits would be far more similar to our own then “early” versions of our species
Yeah but we started fucking Neanderthals way later and there were plenty of inbred diasporas with little outside contact.
Also it seems to have taken a bit for human ethnicities and morphology to stabilize. We absorbed a lot of other humans in Africa to the point that it unironically messed up a lot of early data cause early scientists didn’t think fucked to extinction was a valid form of human expansion.
Early might not be the right word, I think I’m mixing it up with pre-agricultural hunter gatherers (I think I’m forgetting a term here, but it’s hot and I’m tired).
Why did you have to remind me?
I hear you, I had blissfully forgotten all about that.
SIX fingers…
If anyone missed the RiffTrax version of that movie it is one of the better ones. You can still find it on the privateer gulf.
First thing I saw
