Digital Facial Approximation of Jebel Irhoud Composite Skull (~315,000 BP)
The archeological site of Jebel Irhoud, Morocco, houses the oldest fossils attributed to Homo sapiens, dated to approximately 315,000 years before present (BP). This study presents a forensic facial approximation based on data from a three-dimensional composite skull derived from Layer 7 of the site, with structural predominance of the Irhoud 1 fossil. The methodology employed open-source software tools, combining anatomical projections and the c…
The digital facial approximation of Saint Adalbert of Prague (AD 956-997)
The Facial approximation of the controversial skull attributed to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) is considered as one of the greatest composers of the Classical Period of music (ca. 1750-1820). Gifted with an unparalleled precocity, which allowed him to play and compose at the highest levels from a very young age, he continued his studies until the end of his life. Despite his prominent status, he was buried in a collective grave and years later his skull was supposedly recovered, reaching the present day …
Facial approximation of a skull with signs of tertiary syphilis found in the Skriðuklaustur monastery (Iceland, 15th-16th century AD)
The anatomical bases of the 3D digital facial approximation of the Zlatý kůň 1 woman (ca. 43,000 BP)
In 1950 on Mount Zlatý kůň ('Golden Horse') in modern-day Czech Republic a system of caves was discovered. During many years of research in this area, human and animal osteological remains have been excavated, among which the most interesting ones were nine fragments of a female skull, now dated to ca. 43,000 yrs BP which are one of the earliest known anatomically modern humans in Eurasia. The aim of this research was to use purely digital techni…
Holt’s Fourth Porus Chariot-Type Medallion
In this article the authors of an original publication on the so-called Porus medallions of Alexander the Great published a few years ago in the Journal of the Numismatic Association of Australia respond to some criticism addressed at their study by F. Holt in issue 15 of this journal (pp. 13–20). The authors’ rebuttal is based on mathematical principles and textual analysis
Lord Byron (1788–1824) as the Precursor of Celebrities Endorsing Vaccine Hesitancy
Lord Byron can be classified as the prototype of contemporary celebrities endorsing pseudo-scientific views and opposing vaccination policies based on his public statements, while privately he appears to have had double standards since he had his page inoculated against smallpox. Through a review of the biomedical and historical literature this paper examines the role of the example given by celebrities during vaccination campaigns, focusing on t…

Queen Meresankh III – the oldest case of bilateral Silent Sinus Syndrome (c. 2620/10 - 2570 BC)
The silent sinus syndrome is characterized by painless enophthalmia and hypotropia caused by chronic atelectasis of the maxillary sinus with onset in adulthood, typically between the third and the fifth decade of life. It is increasingly diagnosed as a result of today’s widespread use of computed tomography (CT). The phenomenon was originally described in 1964 (Montgomery, 1964), while the term “silent sinus syndrome” was later introduced by Sopa…
A New Astronomically Based Chronological Model for the Egyptian Old Kingdom
A recently discovered inscription on an ancient Egyptian ointment jar mentions the heliacal rising of Sirius. In the time of the early Pharaohs, this specific astronomical event marked the beginning of the Egyptian New Year and originally the annual return of the Nile flood, making it of great ritual importance. Since the Egyptian civil calendar of 365 days permanently shifted one day in four years in comparison to the stars due to the lack of in…
Identifications of ancient E gyptian royal mummies from the 18th Dynasty reconsidered
For centuries, ancient Egyptian Royal mummies have drawn the attention both of the general public and scientists. Many royal mummies from the New Kingdom have survived. The discoveries of the bodies of these ancient rulers have always sparked much attention, yet not all identifications are clear even nowadays. This study presents a meta-analysis to demonstrate the difficulties in identifying ancient Egyptian royal mummies. Various methods and pit…
Body height of mummified pharaohs supports historical suggestions of sibling marriages
Body height is an important factor in reconstructing health conditions and it serves as an indicator of socio‐economic status. Researchers rely on ancient data to analyze evolutionary aspects of human health and its interrelation with environmental influences. This study presents body height estimates from all periods of ancient Egyptian history and compares the general population with the existing mummies of the members of royal families. A samp…
