‘Ava’
In Scotland’s Northern region, you can find the site of Achavanich, which is a pretty mysterious place due to the well-known horseshoe-shaped arrangement of rocks. Back in 1987, researchers were able to complete facial reconstruction of a woman whose body they discovered on the site. They called her ‘Ava’ and they concluded that she was between the ages of 18 and 22 when she died. Her skeletal remains date back to over 3,700 years ago.

What ‘Ava’ Really Looked Like
Thanks to archaeologists Hew Morrison and Maya Hoole of the ‘Achavanich Beaker Burial Project’ and the facial reconstruction they did on Ava, plenty of details on the anthropology and history of the Bronze Age have been discovered. Because of Ava’s DNA, scientists were able to get an idea of what she would look like today.
