King Tutankhamun Reconstruction - in Audio

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4648397
NPR News interview with Chris Sloan from the National Geographic Society. He talks about two teams who worked on the team - one team who knew it was Tutankhamun, one who didn't. Initially the team in the dark thought that the skull was female. They thought that the skull was a little strange in shape, but their investigations showed that it falls within the range of human variation. This has more information than most of the newspaper and Internet articles, and is well worth a listen if you are interested in this subject. You will need either Windows Media Player or RealPlayer installed (but there are links to download either if you haven't got them already and do want to install them).
