The authors said they hoped ancient DNA might shed light on Wu’s cause of death. The emperor died suddenly at age 36, according to the study. Explanations for his demise put forward in historical texts include illness and deliberate poisoning. However, the study did not give enough detail about other morphological variables such as the thickness of the skin, muscle and fat that envelop the facial bones, eyeball placement and projection, eyebrow shape, nose width, and lip height, factors which can be included in a facial reconstruction, Houlton said.More interesting than the emperor’s appearance was his Xianbei ancestry, said Jeong Hoongwon, an associate professor at Seoul National University’s School of Biological Sciences.
He said it was notable that Emperor Wu had a relatively high percentage of ancestry from a group known as ancient North Asians, given that the Xianbei had interacted with the dominant Han Chinese for several centuries by that point.
