Queen Nzinga: Facial Reconstructions & History Documentary

Nzinga is one of my favorite women in history. She lived a fascinating life that is not recounted nearly as often as it should be. Nzinga was the warrior ruler of the Kingdoms of Ndongo and Matamba, which now constitute modern-day Angola. She spent her life in on-and-off warfare with the Portuguese, trying to protect her people and the rest of the African interior from slave raiders. So what did she look like? Unfortunately we don’t quite have a contemporary portrait of her - what we do have is a copy of a lost original sketch. Let's learn about her history and then I'll reveal my recreation of the Warrior Queen.
