It has been a while since the mummy Pesed has been reported upon, but this article has an update: "For more than 2,000 years, no one knew what Pesed looked like. Until Tuesday. The likeness of the head of an aging and regal Egyptian woman was displayed for the first time at Westminster College in New Wilmington, Lawrence County. Crafted by Frank Bender, a Philadelphia forensic sculptor, the model shows Pesed with a strong chin, full lips, bulbous nose and deep furrows -- in keeping with her age, between 60 and 70. The facial reconstruction largely is the result of rapid leaps in scanning technology."
