What did people from the New Stone Age look like? For a long time, nobody knew. But modern technologies have now shown us the faces of two men from that time.
A group of Chinese researchers released the portraits (肖像) of these two men. They were based on their skulls. These head bones were discovered at the Yangshao Village site in Henan Province.
The researchers believe the two men both lived near the Yellow River. One man likely lived around 5,600 years ago, during the Yangshao culture period. He was about 40 years old when he died. The other was around 50. He might have lived about 4,000 years ago. This was the Longshan culture period.
At present, there are no written records of these ancient people. The researchers collected lots of data from the skulls. They used the data to create 3D models of the men's faces. Then, they studied populations with the closest genetic (基因的) background. This helped them to rebuild the muscles (肌肉). Genetic studies also showed other features of the two men. These include their skin colour and what their hair was like.
“The project lets us know the faces of our ancestors,” said one of the researchers. “It also helps us learn something about the rich cultures of ancient society.”

18. What can we learn from this project according to the researchers? (不超过 20 个词)
