  • Tutankhamun, the former pharaoh of Egypt, has been rebuilt to look like a “young student” as scientists worked on bringing him “back to life”.
  • Over 3,300 years on from his death, boffins building from his mummified skull have completed a digital model of what his face may have looked like during his time as ruler of Egypt.
