3D reconstructions of shipwreck skulls posted online

Researchers from Swansea University in the U.K have posted an online exhibition of 3D reconstructions of skulls and other artifacts from the 1545 wreck of Henry VIII's warship, the Mary Rose.

While many of the virtual objects are available for viewing by the public, others are for research purposes, according to a report from BBC News. A separate, research-focused section of the site will include reconstructions of nine other skulls from the shipwreck and will be available to bone specialists around the world, according to the BBC article.

Each participant will be asked to complete a questionnaire to share their assessment of the skulls. The researchers will then analyze the results.

The exhibition, which was timed to coincide with this week's British Science Festival in Swansea, can be found here.
