The Mystery Skull
Skull suturing and baby teeth in a detached piece of
maxilla (upper jaw and palate) indicate death around 5 years of age.
The face is missing from the upper bridge of the nose to the foramen
magnum (the hole where the spine enters the skull), but the cranium
and most of both eye orbits (the external parts of the sockets) are
intact.
This skull's degree of humanity is at issue because several aspects
of its morphology defy categorizing as genetic defect (inherited),
congenital deformation (birth defect), or inflicted deformity
(cranial binding).
The Human Skull
A human skull assumed to be Amerindian (an Indian
from North or South America) because the rear of its cranium
exhibits the flattening that results from being carried in infancy
on a cradle board. Tooth wear suggests age at death
was around 25 years, plus or minus five. Its smallish size and other
reduced points of reference indicate it will likely prove to be
female.
Binding
Experts suggest the child's high degree of occipital
(rear-skull) deformity would most likely have resulted from the
cranial binding practiced by primitive cultures around the world.
However, such binding never extends below the inion (the bump at the
back of the head) because the human neck begins just below that
point. Furthermore, squeezing a skull's upper bones out of their
natural shape leaves them permanently separated, which results in a
life-long "soft spot" at the top of the head.
The child's skull is well-sutured (no soft spot),
with none of the distortions normally caused by binding.
Furthermore, the extent of rear flattening extends well past the
inion, which has become slightly concave. This indicates a strong
force other than binding (i.e. pathology or a natural design) must
have caused the occipital's extensive deformation.
Brain Volume
Though markedly different in shape, the skulls are
roughly the same size. However, they exhibit a stunning difference
in brain volume. The average volume for a human brain is 1400 cubic
centimeters (cc). The volume of the human skull is 1200 cc, typical
for a small human. In contrast, the volume of the child's skull is
1600 cc, which is 200 cc beyond the average for adult humans. And
had it lived to become an adult, its brain capacity would have grown
to 1800 cc or more, well beyond the human average.

The Starchild's brain volume,
contained inside a cranium the size of a smallish human's,
is 1600 cc. A normal human skull has a brain volume around 1400
cubic centimeters.
In paleoanthropology (the study of ancient animals)
a 200 cc increase in brain capacity of a human type creature
warrants the naming of an entirely new species. Homo Erectus
averages 200 cc more than Homo Habilis; Homo Archaic is 200 cc more
than Erectus; Neanderthal is 200 cc more than Archaic. Thus, this
child might well represent an unknown species of human-like beings.
Weight
An average human skull weighs 2.2 pounds (lbs.). The
adult's skull (which is missing its lower jawbone and teeth) weighs
1 lb., 13.4 ounces. Including the child skull's piece of detached
maxilla (upper jaw), it weighs only 13.5 ounces. Because it is
roughly the size of the adult skull, its bone has to be
significantly lighter than typical human
bone.
Symmetry
The child's skull has a high degree of symmetry
(similarity on both sides). Usually cranial pathologies will cause
differences in degree on either side of the head, along with other
distortions. Thus, it is highly unlikely a cranium so clearly
aberrant would exhibit such startling symmetry throughout
Sutures
A CAT scan has shown that none of the sutures
between the bones in the child's skull have sealed themselves off
from further growth. Nearly all examples of congenital deformity
exhibit some degree of premature sealing of cranial sutures. This
makes it highly unlikely, if not virtually impossible, for the
child's skull to be the result of deformity. It seems to have grown
naturally into the shape is had taken.
The Eyes
Normal human eye sockets have a recessed (5 cm)
conical shape with optic nerves and optic fissures at the inner rear
quadrant of the cone. The child's eye sockets have a shallow (3 cm)
scalloped shape with optic nerves and optic fissures moved down and
away to the inner bottom. Also, the inner surface of both sockets
have incredibly subtle terrain shifts that are impossible to explain
in any way other than genetic design.
The shape and width of the eye orbits (the outer edges of the
sockets) are equally divergent. The adult's have the vaguely
rectangular shape of normal humans, while the child's are shaped
like a lopsided oval. The adult's are typically rounded along the
top of the rectangle, while the upper part of the child's oval has a
clearly definable edge.
The Ears
The child's ear canals are clearly visible on both
sides of its skull. They seem normal in shape and size and angle of
entry, but a recent CAT scan revealed that they are larger and have
more depth than normal human inner ears. There is no way to know if
an external ear was present or what it may have looked like.
The Sinuses
The child had small maxillary (cheek) sinuses but no
trace of frontal sinus cavities. While extremely rare, this
condition is supposedly known among both humans and primates.
The Foramen Magnum
The foramen magnum is the hole at the base of the
skull where the spinal column connects with the brain. In normal
humans the foramen is positioned slightly rear of center to balance
the hollow-filled front face against the brain-filled occipital
area. The extensive reconfiguration of the child's skull has somehow
caused its foramen magnum to be shifted to a central point that
provides much better balance between its rear brain area, and its
face and forebrain.
The Necks
Typical human neck attachments begin at the inion,
the bump in the middle of the occipital bone, and sweep out in a
semicircle that reaches to just behind the ears and converges at the
foramen magnum. The distance from any part of the semicircle to the
foramen opening averages 5 to 6 centimeters.
In the child's skull a shallow arc extends about 3
centimeters from the foramen hole, while the inion has somehow
become slightly concave. Such a drastic reduction in attachment area
means the neck supporting the child's head must have been from 1/2
to 1/3 that of a normal human. Such thin necks are consistently
described as hallmarks of certain alien types (Grays), and of
Gray-human hybrids.
Chewing Muscles
In the child, the area available for attaching
chewing muscles is every bit as reduced as the attachment area for
its neck muscles. And though they are called "chewing"
muscles, they are actually used for connecting and holding the lower
face to the skull. Based on such a reduced connection area, the
amount of mandible (jawbone) these muscles could have secured must
have been greatly reduced.
Human-Alien Hybrids
Many abductees and contactees allege that aliens
(most often "Grays") are conducting genetic experiments
that produce hybrids between themselves and humans. The results of
these unions are consistently described as looking far more human
than alien, but with stark bulges in the parietal bones; shallow eye
sockets; a greatly reduced lower face; a thin neck able to easily
support a well-balanced head; and ears seen as markedly lower and
smaller (or missing entirely) relative to human ears.
The eyes of Grays are consistently described and depicted as large
black teardrop shapes that wrap horizontally across the middle of
the face. If those large orbs are indeed their visual mechanisms, it
would argue against the child's eyes being related to them. However,
in the "Alien Autopsy" film the alien being dissected has
the "standard" Gray eyes until the doctor performing the
autopsy lifts them off and shows them to actually be dark, flexible
coverings like large contact lenses or shades. Underneath those
lenses were round, bulging eyes with plenty of white showing around
dark irises. Those eyes would fit quite well in the reduced eye
sockets of the child.
The Star Being Legends
These are well-known, well-regarded legends with
roots spreading throughout Central and South America. They are
pervasive and long-standing (two centuries or more), and in general
state that on a regular basis "Star Beings" come down from
the heavens and impregnate females in remote, isolated villages. The
women carry their "starchildren" to term, then raise them
to age six or so. At that point the Star Beings return to collect
their progeny and remove them to places, and for purposes, not
clearly outlined in the legends, though improving a stagnated gene
pool is often mentioned as a motivation.
The Non-Traditional Scenario
Many "intuitives" and "sensitives"
feel the adult skeleton was a female and the child was hers, a
human-alien hybrid created by a union between her and a Star Being.
Some feel the mother had learned the Star Beings were returning to
take her child from her, which she refused to contemplate.
Panic-stricken and filled with dread, she took her child and fled
her village, seeking refuge in the hidden mine tunnel. There she
killed it and buried it in a shallow grave, leaving one of its hands
out of the ground to hold onto. Then she took a fatal dose of poison
and lay down beside her child to die.
DNA Testing
Inside the nucleus of human cells is found nuclear
DNA, which is a combination of both parents. Floating outside the
nucleus in each of our cells are tiny bits of stray DNA called
"mitochondria." Because mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) passes
solely through females, the first test of the child's mtDNA will
provide a genetic snapshot of its mother. If she was human, that
snapshot will say "human." However, since the test says
nothing about the father, that does not preclude it being a
human-alien hybrid. Furthermore, testing might indicate an utterly
non-human origin, either by having entirely absent mtDNA or by
having a structure markedly different from human mtDNA.
Nothing is likely to be definitive about the origin
of the child's skull until its nuclear DNA can be tested. Because
the skull is considered technically "ancient" (over 50
years of age), recovering nuclear DNA will be difficult and costly.
Luckily, we have what is most required for such a test, which is
teeth. The pulp in teeth resists deterioration better than any other
part of the body, so that is where we must look for nuclear DNA.
Worldwide there are only a handful of laboratories
capable of sequencing ancient nuclear DNA, and all such processes
are time-consuming, highly technical, and very expensive. Thus, we
cannot contract to have this testing done until funding is available
to pay for it, but we will announce all such results as soon as they
are available.

recent results of DNA testing.
Conclusion
Mainstream Position:
-
Pathology--genetic (inherited) or congenital
(birth defect)--is the standard explanation for any human-like
skullb that does not fit the "normal" human mold.In
the hands of scientists dedicated to pounding square pegs into
the round hole of conventional thinking, pathologycan be made to
cover virtually any deviation.
-
In truth, a unique combination of extraordinary
pathological disorders is a possible explanation for the many
aberrations evident in the child's skull. Absent overwhelming
evidence to the contrary, mainstream science will insist the
skull has resulted from nothing more than multiple pathological
defects.
Points Supporting Non-Earth Origin
The long-standing Star Being legends of Central and
South America provide a plausible mechanism for how a highly
abnormal skull (relative to humans) might have been biologically
created rather than genetically or congenitally malformed, or
physically manipulated by deliberate deformation (binding).
Such immense deformation across the entire occipital (rear) and
parietal (upper side) areas of the skull could not result from
binding without deformation being visible in the frontal area, which
is not evident.
Birth defects across the entire occipital and parietal areas, while
not impossible, seem highly unlikely because of the remarkable
symmetry exhibited in all areas of the skull, including those
effected by the deformations.
The terrain of the bone in the eye sockets contains incredibly
subtle indentations and ridges that are perfectly symmetrical in
both sockets, which simply have to have been formed by genetic
directions rather than by deformations.
The rear deformation extends from the crown to very
near the foramen magnum, an area impossible to reach by any binding
device due to the thick neck muscles (even in a child) that surround
and support the skull-spine connection.
Head binding cannot extend below the inion (the bump at the back of
the head).
Head binding leaves a gaping opening at the top where skull bones
fail to fuse.
The bottom line is that even though the skull's
highly unusual characteristics demand an open-minded approach to it,
mainstream science will reject it outright until forced by DNA
evidence to do otherwise. Indeed, it could turn out to be nothing
more than a butt-ugly kid with an extraordinary combination of
cranial deformities never seen before. But it could also have been
the result of a human-alien union, or an outright alien with no
connection to humanity at all.
Only time and testing will tell which possibility is
correct.

Introduction
Many strangely "deformed" hominoid skulls have been discovered in Mexico and Peru.
Other such skulls have been found around the globe, but this is the first
time that the diversity of skulls within a small area (in this case the
Paracas region of Peru) has been examined. Some of the skulls are very
distinct, as if they belong to entirely different species, remotely
similar to genus Homo.

Unusual Paracas skull supposedly deformed by binding the growing
head of an infant. The resulting
domed head was considered beautiful.
Photographed in the Museo Regional de Ica.
The majority of people
assumed that they represented an example of binding of the head,
well known to be in fashion in ancient Nubia, Egypt and other
cultures. But anthropologists have admitted that the shapes of the Peruvian skulls
is unlike the deformity caused by binding.
Any conjectures that what these specimens represent are simply deformations
or pathological cases can be hardly substantiated. Also, it is necessary to keep
in mind that any pathological growth of the cranium has dire consequences for
the afflicted individual at the early stage of the development, practically
without exception. Nature is very unforgiving in this respect. All the
specimens presented here were mature individuals.

Textbooks' oldest date of appearance of humans in North America is
about 35,000 BC and much later for South America, based on the diffusion
theory assumptions. Only humans with modern types of anatomy can
comfortably be placed Peru. These types of skulls simply should not exist.
Skulls from
Ica, Peru and Merida, Mexico
The following segment is ©1996 by Lumir G. Janku.
Reprinted with permission.
These skulls were photographed by Robert Connolly on his trip around the
world during which he was collecting materials about ancient civilizations.
The discovery of unusual skulls was thus an unintended "spinoff" of
his efforts. Robert Connolly published his photographs on a CD-ROM, titled Search
for Ancient Wisdom in 1995.
The data about the skulls is incomplete, and that makes the correct
assessment of their age, context with other hominids, as well as placement of
their origin extremely difficult. Some of the skulls are very distinct, as if
they belong to entirely different species, remotely similar to genus Homo. The
first thing that attracts attention is the size and shape of the cranium in
all the specimens. There are 4 different groups represented in the pictures.
As a matter of convenience, I labeled them "conehead",
"jack-o-lantern" or "J" and "M" based on the
shape of the skull, except the first and possibly earliest type of skull,
which I call "premodern".
When some of these pictures (the first two) were posted on CompuServe more
than year ago, the majority of people assumed that they represented an example
of binding of the head, well known to be in fashion in ancient Nubia, Egypt
and other cultures. The problem with this theory is that the inside of the
cranium of the mentioned skulls, although elongated and with a back sloping,
flattened forehead, have the same capacity as normal human skulls; the only
difference is the shape achieved by frontal and side deformations. They are
actually more similar to the first type of skull (premodern) with the rounded
back, than the conehead type. The cone-shaped types of skull are not found
amongst the usual skull-binding samples.
The first skull presents problems of its own. The frontal part of the skull
seems to belong to an individual of the pre-Neanderthal family, but the lower
jaw, though more robust than modern human type, has a modern shape and
characteristics. The shape of the cranium does not have any comparison with
the Erectus, Neanderthal types, nor the modern human type. Some minor
Neanderthal characteristics are present, as is the occipital ridge on the
bottom back of the skull and the flattened bottom of the cranium, other
characteristics point more tovards Homo Erectus. The angle of the cranial
bottom is, though, unusual. We cannot exclude the possibility of a deformed
individual in this case, but it is highly unlikely that the angle of the
frontal part would require a modification of the lower jaw in the process of
growing to resemble modern human types with their projected chin rim. The
answer seems to be that the skull belongs to a representantive of an unknown
premodern human or humanoid type.
As is obvious from the comparison with a modern human skull, the cranial
capacity lies within the modern human range. This is not surprising, since the
late Neanderthals and early modern humans (Cro-Magnon) had larger cranial
capacities (both roughly 1600 ccm to 1750 ccm) than modern humans (av. 1450
ccm). The decrease of the cranial capacity (sudden at that -- the specimens of
modern humans after about 10500 BCE have smaller craniums) is a puzzling
matter, but that's another story.
No less puzzling is what a representative of a premodern human type is
doing on the South American continent. According to the orthodox anthropology,
this skull simply does not exist, because it cannot be. Textbooks' oldest date
of appearance of humans in North America is about 35000 BCE and much later for
South America, based on the diffusion theory assumptions. The only accepted
human types entering the continent are of the modern anatomy. There are some
other sources that place all types of human genus in both Americas at much
earlier dates based on numerous anomalous finds, but the academe sticks to its
preconceived notions, no matter what. It's safer.
Premodern
The "premodern" skull and the following three specimens were
found in the Paracas region of Perú. It does not necessarily mean that they
are related. There is some possibility that the "premodern" is in
fact a precursor of the "conehead" type, but since we do not have
any dating analysis at hand, we may only speculate in this regard.
The "conehead" type is very unusual because of the cranial shape.
Here we have three specimens, which exclude the possibility of random or
artificial deformation (the already mentioned Nubian deformations had quite a
number of individual variations). They have individual characteristics within
the range of overall morphology. There is no doubt that they are closely
related and possibly represent quite a distinct branch of the genus Homo, if
not an entirely different species.
The comparison of the C1 with a modern human skull has slight inaccuracies,
caused by a degree of distortion when rotating the skull shape into position.
As is obvious from C2 and C3, the angle of the bottom part of the cranium does
not deviate from normal. However, the general proportions are correct.

Figure C1
The enormity of the cranial vault is obvious from all three pictures. By
interpolation, we can estimate the minimum cranial capacity at 2200 ccm, but
the value can be as high as 2500 ccm. The shape of the skull may be a
biological response--a survival of the species mechanism--to increase the
brain mass without the danger of relegating the species to extinction and
keeping a viable biological reproduction intact. However, since we do not see
the representatives of the "conehead" type in modern population,
something prevented the type becoming as widespread as it is in the case of
present-day moderns.

Figure C2 |

Figure C3 |
The "J" type of skull presents different sets of problems. It is
an equivalent of the modern type of skull in all respects, with only several
factors out of proportion. Less significant is the size of eye sockets which
are about 15% larger than in modern populations. More significant is the
enormity of the cranial vault. The estimated cranial capacity ranges between
minimum of 2600 ccm to 3200 ccm.
Again, the age of the specimen is unknown and so far I am not aware of
other specimens of this type. The variation on a theme may be the
"M" type of skull which is even more bizarre than all the previous
skulls.

Type "J"
The "M" type of skull is incomplete, as the lower part of the
facial area is concerned. What is apparent from the remnants of the facial
portion is that the characteristics are entirely within the range of a normal
human skull. The cranial vault, on the other hand, is the largest amongst the
displayed specimens. Also, the two protruding "lobes" are highly
anomalous. The cranial capacity can be estimated safely above 3000 ccm mark.

Type "M"
Both "J" and "M" types are bordering on biological
impossibility. The only explanation I can imagine for the specimens to be
naturally born is if the neoteny (the ability of the species to prolong the
growth period before maturing) of both groups had been expanded beyond the
range for a modern type of human, for the skull to grow to such a size. That
may also mean the average life span of these specimens may have been
substantially longer than the average for the modern human type.
Any conjectures that what these specimens represent are simply deformations
or pathological cases can be hardly substantiated. Anomalous types of growth
or shapes appear from time to time in the modern human population, however,
these occurrences are still within the range of the given species. The largest
skull documented in the medical literature had the cranial capacity of 1980
ccm, however, the shape of the skull was normal. Also, it is necessary to keep
in mind that any pathological growth of the cranium has dire consequences for
the afflicted individual at the early stage of the development, practically
without exception. Nature is very unforgiving in this respect. All the
specimens presented here were mature individuals.
The capacity of the cranial vault (and thus the brain mass) and
intelligence is not necessarily indicated by the other. The individual with
the largest skull, already mentioned above, was a retarded man, while Anatole
France with his 1100 ccm was quite a brilliant writer.

The
Mystery of the Crystal Skulls: A Real Life Detective Story
of the Ancient World
by Chris Morton, Ceri Louise Thomas |
An old Native American legend tells of thirteen
life-size crystal skulls, which are said to hold crucial
information about humankind's true purpose and future
destiny. The skulls would be discovered and their secrets
revealed when the human race was sufficiently developed. The
authors hear of this legend while in the jungles of Belize
and set out on a quest to discover its truth. "The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls" follows their
journey from Maya temples to the British Museum, the
Smithsonian, and to the crystal laboratories of
Hewlett-Packard, where tests lead one scientist to conclude,
"This {crystal} skull should not even
exist."
In the end, shamans and native elders reveal the sacred
knowledge the skulls contain and answer the questions this
enduring mystery raises:
Are the skulls artifacts from the lost civilization of
Atlantis, or are they extraterrestrial in origin?
Made from piezo-electric quartz crystal, used in today's
computers, are the skulls information storage devices?
Do they really posses telepathic qualities, allowing us to
see deep into the past and predict the future?
What is the message they bring about future earth changes
and the destiny of humanity?

The
Mystery of the Crystal Skulls
by Chris Morton, Ceri Louise Thomas
Chris Morton and Ceri Thomas have journeyed all
over the world meeting people who could tell them about the
crystal skulls, including the indigenous peoples, psychics,
archaeologists and scientists. This text reveals their
acquired knowledge from the travels. |
Book Description
The crystal skulls are a mystery as profound as the Pyramids
of Egypt, the Nazca Lines of Peru, or Stonehenge. Many
indigenous people speak of their remarkable magical and
healing properties, but nobody really knows where they came
from or what they were used for. Were they left behind after
the destruction of a previous world, such as Atlantis? Are
they simply ingenious modern fakes or can they really enable
us to see deeply into the past and predict the future?
Searching for the answers takes the authors on a fantastic
odyssey through both the physical and the spiritual world.
After hearing stories of an old native American legend that
describes the existence of thirteen ancient crystal skulls,
that are said to speak or sing and hold important
information about the origins, purpose and destiny of
mankind. The authors set out on their own quest to find the
truth about the skulls. They encounter psychics, UFO
hunters, shamans, mystics and medicine men on a journey of
discovery that takes them from the British Museum in London
to the deserts of the United States, from the science labs
of Hewlett Packard to the cold snows of Canada and the
tropical jungles of Mexico, Guatemala and Belize. At sacred
gatherings of native elders they learn of ancient wisdom
kept secret for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. They
hear of startling prophecies concerning events that will
happen on this Earth in the immediate future, prophecies
that question the very survival of the human species on this
small island we call home. This is the story of their
remarkable discoveries.
