According to British media reports on September 5, last month archaeologists found a well-preserved Siberian princess in the permafrost of Siberia, Russia. With the help of new technologies such as digital modeling, archaeologists have discovered that although the princess lived 2,500 years ago, she possessed a keen sense of fashion, not only dressed in avant-garde elegance, but also in makeup and wigs.

The body was found near the border of Mongolia, China and Kazakhstan, with an altitude of over 2,300 meters. Russian archaeologists concluded that the princess was about 25 years old when she died. She was in a good position before her death. She should belong to the "Buzerek" according to the tattoo pattern on her left shoulder and the horn of the goat and the goat's horn.

Archaeologists say that in order to make themselves look more beautiful, humans liked to pierce some totem patterns on the skin more than 2,000 years ago, and the young princess obviously made more efforts in this regard. "We carefully examined the princess's grave and found that there was a cosmetic bag on the left hand side of the princess in the coffin. Interestingly, the bag was actually equipped with a good horse hair makeup brush and a broken eyeliner. Eyeliner The pen holder is made of iron ring, and the refill is a laminite powder, which can draw dark blue-green lines on the skin."

Professor Natalya Porosmark is one of the archaeologists who discovered the tomb of the Princess of Siberia. “The princess’s clothing is very special, with a short-haired jacket and a large red wool dress. The tailoring of this short-haired coat is very interesting. Like the men’s clothing of the same period, the sleeves are long and narrow, and the main part is short. The length is probably the world's first tuxedo. The long skirt is 144 cm long, 90 cm wide near the waist, and 112.5 cm wide at the bottom. The top is light red, and the color below is more intense." Professor Porosmark said, "From The fabric can be seen that the dyeing technique of the Buzerek people is very mature. The design of this long skirt is also very novel and modern. The long skirt is matched with a wool woven belt. The length of the skirt can be adjusted as needed. It should be to resist the cold weather in the Siberian region, and the princess is wearing a pair of white over-the-knee boots."


By analyzing the fragments of the princess costumes in the tomb, Professor Porosmark believes that although the Buzereks live in remote areas in southern Siberia, they are not occluded and have cultural exchanges with China, India, Iran and even the Mediterranean. Trade and business, and the Buzerek people combined their fabric patterns and dyeing technology to create their unique style of clothing. The dyeing technique of the skirt comes from the Iranian or Mediterranean region of the same period. The design of the silk shirt worn by the princess is obviously from China, but the silk fabric is from India or other South Asian countries.

“It’s amazing that the Siberian princess shaved his head and wore a wig and a complicated headgear. After 2500 years, the wig was still well preserved, the bottom of the wig was like a hat, and the hat was fixed with two layers. There is also a black elastic device between the hair and the two layers of hair, which should be used to help the wearer adjust the hair and hair volume," explains Professor Porosmark. However, archaeologists are currently unable to explain why the princess shaved his head. They speculated that this may be the customs of the Buzerek, related to the marital status or fertility status of women. ·Xin Lian·
