PHARAOH RAMSES II FACIAL RECONSTRUCTION FROM MUMMY

A composite reconstruction at 3 stages of life, of Ramses The Great, son of Seti, husband of Nefertari and father of over 100 children.

Ramses was born of non-royal blood in the Hyksos capital in the Nile Delta of Avaris.
He was one of the longest living kings, living into his 90s. He built more than any other king.
A Fierce worrier, famed for the Battle of Kadesh. Later in his life, he took a step back from battle to focus of religious roles, leaving his sons in charge of military.
DNA test show that he was indeed red haired.
9 Pharaohs after him took on his name.

I worked on this reconstruction based off of his Mummy, which I had the pleasure to see in Cairo where I felt very emotional looking at the great king. His mummy is exceptionally well preserved. This is the second recon of Ramses that I have done, the other was a simple profile angle reconstruction. This new one is much more realistic. I have many other videos/documentaries on Ramses on my channel.
