Early human
When we were in the Natural History Museum, we went through the early human exhibit. They had what looked like a camera booth set up but what it really did was take your picture and then transposed your eyes, mouth and a few facial features into a replica of what an early humanoid would have looked like. Then you could email it to yourself. I could have been a Neanderthal but instead I chose to be a heidelbergensis man, a direct ancestor of modern humans. Heidelbergensis lived between 700,000 and 200,000 years ago in what is now Europe and Africa and maybe in Asia as well. I was one of the first early human species to live in cold habitats and sail boats. (OK, I added that last one).
