See the lifelike face of Zuzu, a man who lived 9,600 years ago in Brazil

In 1997, archaeologists unearthed a skeleton buried in the fetal position at Toca dos Coqueiros, an archaeological site in Brazil's Serra da Capivara National Park. Based on the size and shape of the skull, they identified the remains as female and named the skeleton Zuzu. But that classification has remained 
steeped in controversy, with many researchers claiming the deceased was actually male. 
Now, a new facial approximation of the 9,600-year-old skull may help put this debate to rest.
