Ellen Grav, an archaeologist at the University Museum of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), presented to the world a realistic model of a medieval woman named Thora.Now her image has been exhibited as part of the exhibition of the NTNU Museum.The name "Thor" was chosen as part of a survey conducted by the Norwegian broadcaster NRK.
According to the study, Thora was born in the late 1200s and lived in Trondheim, a city in central Norway. According to the museum, at that time, the medieval metropolis was growing rapidly and was inhabited by artisans and merchants.
Although there is no written record of the Thor, archaeologists have pieced together the life story of this medieval woman based on information about her skeleton and the location where the body was exhumed.

Scholars have found that the Torah lived for about 65 years, which is quite a long time for that period."She must have lived a pretty good life for her time," they writeHowever, the deformity of the spine in the Torah skeleton suggests that the woman walked hunched over.She also had no lower teeth.
