Archival Reconstitutions Redux

Life in the
Past Lane


- bumper sticker from the
Southern California Genealogical Society

 

Not only are Archival Reconstitutions being created in the perfume world link

but, serendipity brought my attention to a documentary on Cleopatra from the Egyptian point of view, and another from archeological/forensic teams linking ancient royals, including ones excluded from historical texts, Cleopatra: Portrait of a Killer.

 
With plastination and the global dna bank it's going to be interesting linking the travels of not only families, recessives and dominants, but of germs, viruses, immunities and more.
