Description

This is one of a pair of 'Alternative Reconstructions', intended to illustrate different hypotheses based on the same evidence; in this case, ideas about what the people in question may looked like or wore. In this alternative view, the people wear patterned clothing and body paint. This is the underlying original sketch copied to underpin the final painting, see IC005/003.
