An 18-year-old girl who lived in Greece 7,000 years ago and was discovered by archaeologists in Theopetra cave, near the city of Trikala has now been recreated and officially introduced.
Eight years after finding ancient remains; The head of a girl who lived in Ancient Athens named Dawn was fully reconstructed and the Acropolis museum introduced this work to Greek audiences.
According to the University of Athens professor, Manolis Papagrigorakis, Dawn was a Mesolithic woman (7,000 BC) living in Theopetra cave.
Dawn, who was discovered by archaeologist Nina Kyparissi-Apostolika, has a wilder appearance than the Myrtis, her age. The face reconstruction (her clothes and hair in particular) is full of problems, because of the lack of significant evidence.
The discovery and regeneration of this 7000-year-old girl body will increase the current understanding of ancient Greek history and culture. This debut is part of the 'Dawn at Dawn of Civilization' seminar, which will be held on January 19, 2018, at the lecture hall of the Acropolis Museum.
