Help! I saw a news feature some time ago about someone in England who was working on a computer graphics system that would take data from a skull (found at an archaeological site) and produce a 3-D image of what the original face might have looked like. However, it all happened to quickly to jot any details down, and I have forgotten even what program I saw this on.... Does anybody know who was doing this research, and how one might contact them? And, does anyone know of some similar research going on? Thanx for any tips!

What I'd like is a system that would take data of a face and produce a 3-D image of what the skull looked like ... :-) John S.
