Skulls look awful close to what is posted in the recent post about Atlantis.

and the merging of men with beasts...

It is my opinion that these skulls are standard humans who have been purposefully deformed using head wrapping techniques to warp the shape of the skull since birth. Done for religious reasons. Now the religious reasons may have been something to do with extraterrestrials, but the skulls we are shown seem too human to be anything else. The reasons for these skulls not being human still aren't convincing enough for me. I would need some kind of study into head wrapping to see its limitations on effect on human proportions. Right now I don't know what strange things happen to human heads when binding occurs. The body may attempt to reorganize and expand or shift in several points to accommodate the forced shape.

The only truly strange skull I can think of is the "Star Child" skull. Though that may just be an extreme deformity.

Hey. As I said, I think that the Star Child skull is the only perceptibly different (perhaps extraterrestrial) facial structure I have seen. I'm not ruling that one out.

Hey no offense but if I had a child that looked like that I would put it in a zoo!

it would look like that...

well i love all come on baby...

j/k well not really...

this life is all that is and if that is an aspect so it be...

I agree with Heelstone. They probably started at birth and wore rings on their heads to reform them slowly. Sometimes at birth a child has a conehead already, shaped from being in the uterus too long. Skulls are soft at birth, so this would be easy to do. The brain needs to expand and if a tight ring is on the head, the only way it can grow is up or pointy

Heelstone got it right on the money
Those are just some more crazy human beans
from yesteryear
wrapped the heads to make them look like eggplants
cos thats what they worshipped back then
Good guess anyways

Body shaping is prevalent in many cultures; hell, the Chinese used to wrap womens feet so that the foot was small & dainty...the ideal. That it crippled them was less of a concern.

Skulls look awful close to what is posted in the recent post about Atlantis.

cause it's the same thing...skull wrapping...

NOVA... recently had a repeat (encore) presentation on Nearanderthals......before they became? extinct?

it was wondered WHY their skulls had an Elongated Occipetal(check my spell) Bun.....???
***analysis determined it was for VISION !!***

Did these closed groups of tribes/peoples...recall an earlier epoc of humans & human cousins?
and, keep alive the myth- of a slain brother- thru this odd? rite or religious exercise???

Are the binding/forming of skulls a ritual for::---->respecting the lost race--reverencing a fallen co-warrior? perhaps???

Are you a questor, speculator, in need of a focus or theme to pursue??....

It was also done in asia. If you look at "the ancients" of asian culture, they all have very deformed heads... done by a simple process at birth. The process has already been outlined. It allows the "soft part" of the skull to never quite grow together...

i think i try it with my kid...
he will be the talk of the school...

oh and the brain thing... it expands "puffs' to fill the cavity. it doesn't mean that it weighs any more than a normal brain...

Ah but yes the soft spot never heals persay, and on this skulls the skull is total harden. Also thicker then usual, and brain mass if it did puff up would still way more do to the fact of more water and material being in it.

The soft spot heals. Go to a mueseum and look at some examples of Flathead Indian skulls. These skulls are faily well known among archeologists, the means by which they were deformed is well documented. It is a bit silly to go off about aliens in the face of well established knowledge.
