By using 3D printing, medical scanners, and an electronic larynx, they managed to replicated a single vowel sound. They had to take exact measurements of the larynx and throat by using a non-destructive CT scan. However, scientists were not able to get an exact replica of the sound because the tongue had deteriorated over the 3,000 year time period. Nonetheless, this technology has helped in developments to hear vocal tracts from someone long dead. | ||
