Portraits from Weedon Island.

In the late 1970s Hermann Trappman had the opportunity to photograph skulls that were being held in the collections at the St. Petersburg Museum or history. It is believed they were from an ancient burial site located at Weedon Island in southeastern Pinellas County Florida. Hermann also trained in forensic reconstruction at the county coroners office.  These digital images push aside the shadowy veils of time, so we have a chance to look into the eyes of a few of those ancient residents.
