As English Heritage put it in summarizing the research: “Anglo, Scandinavian and Norman interests were closely connected.”

The Reconstruction Team And The Process

The facial reconstruction of Conquest Man was carried out by researchers from Face Lab at Liverpool John Moores University, working in collaboration with English Heritage.

Face Lab at Liverpool John Moores University is a specialized research unit focused on forensic facial reconstruction and related techniques.

The unit has worked on reconstructions of historical figures and archaeological specimens across multiple projects.

Their work combines forensic science methodology with the specific requirements of archaeological applications, where the goal is an honest probabilistic representation of what a person looked like rather than a definitive portrait.
