Description Donna del Caviglione, the Lady of Cavillon, The Man of Menton, etc...

What a woman. According to some sources she was 190cm (6"2") tall, and she was found bedecked in the finest of mesolithic tooth and shell jewelry that 240 centuries past could afford.
Can you imagine a woman of her impressive height striding towards you arrayed like a Cro-magnon queen? It must have been a sight. 

At some point in time she broke her right arm, and while she could still use it, it seems like limited mobility made her switch to the left.

I don't know who did the recreation I worked off of, but it can be found at the Museo preistorico dei Balzi Rossi in Italy.

Edit Jan 2023: DeviantArt user Marionka66 created the original recreation for the Centre Européen de Recherches Préhistoriques de Tautavel. What a fantastic recreation.
