Foxy Neolithic Lady

An exhibit at Sweden’s Vasternorrlands Museum introduces modern humans to Neolithic ones.  Thanks to brilliant forensic reconstruction, Stone Age skeletal remains were able to yield a full-size replica of a 4,000-year-old woman.

She was a little under five feet tall, and likely had brown eyes, brown hair, and light skin.  Dressed “head to toe in fur and leather,” this original foxy lady was a lot more stylish than “Far Side” cartoons have indicated.
