title: Rebuilding the face of George Buchanan (1506-1582).
abstract: For many years, controversy has existed as to which of several portraits bore the closest resemblance to George Buchanan, Scottish humanist, historian, churchman, statesman and tutor to James VI of Scotland (later James I of England). It was considered that a formal facial reconstruction from his skull, which is housed in Edinburgh University Anatomy Museum, would help clarify this long standing dilemma. The reconstruction process and its results are described and illustrated.
