Facial reconstruction of Jane, a young female Jamestown colonist

Stephen Rouse, specialist in 3D modeling for medical applications, utilizes images from a CT scan to digitally reconstruct Jane’s splintered cranium so a 3D model of the skull can be generated. Ivan Schwartz of StudioEIS then explains how they are able to create a likeness of Jane’s facial features through sculpting and painting with the 3D model as a base. The archaeologists and forensic scientists decided to name the young girl Jane with an understanding that her true identity may never be revealed.
