Description
My attempt at reconstructing Combe-Capelle Man. Again, I am not trained in forensics, I am no expert on forensic skull reconstructions. Take this reconstruction with a grain of salt. I watched two YouTube videos and read several articles. That's my entire CV.

Combe-Capelle Man is a request from keenliar .

For 101 years he was thought to be 30,000 years old, an Upper Paleolithic Cro-Magnon man and one of the oldest finds of modern humans in Europe. Unfortunately he wasn't. Recent collagen dating showed him to be much, much younger.

Fortunately however, he was still fairly old and from the mesolithic, coming in at about 7600 BC.

We don't have a DNA analysis on him, but I portrayed him as all the other people in France at the time; a Western Hunter Gather.

UPDATE 2023: Hopefully looks less cartoonish now. Skull comparisons cropped and placed in comments below.
