Stone Age woman looked like 4,000 years ago on display at Västernorrlands Museum in Sweden and is based on skeletal remains that were found in 1923.
The remains of the Stone Age woman were found next to the body of a seven year old boy who may have been her son.
Oscar Nilsson, the Sweden-based forensic artist who worked on the model, explained: "With our eyes and perhaps in all times, could be that this is a mother and son.
"We don't know, because the DNA was not that well preserved to establish this relationship."
Forensic details suggest that the Stone Age woman died in her 20s or early 30s.
Her remains didn't show signs of injury or diseases.
"She seems to have had a good life," he said.

She ate land-based food, an examination of the isotopes in her teeth revealed.
At 4 feet, 11 inches she wasn't very tall even for the Neolithic period.
Her brown hair and eyes color were an educated guess.
It's likely she was a farmer and a hunter gatherer.
Swedish archaeologist Helena Gjaerum designed the woman's clothes.
Animal skins were slathered in moose brains to soften them and prevent rotting.
