@ancestralwhispersdotorg: Facial reconstruction of a 3,000-year-old man from Gilan The people of Iron Age Gilan were pre-Iranic-speaking natives of the region, sometimes referred to as the Caspians in ancient sources. Iron Age Gilan was characterized by an abundance of animal figurines, a large number of gold and silver objects, and weapon hoards, especially swords, alongside cultural influences from the Caucasus. #phenotype #ancientdna #genetics #anthropology #skull #iranian
