Fucking Xenomorphs.
That's why they call everyone xenophobic.
Too much inbreeding.
Check out Roger Stone. I think it’s from chorale birth and they didn’t put the scull shape helmet on back in the day.
Do you have any other links about the generational differences or timelines? It's been a few years however I recall watching or reading something on many of these elongated skulls and how some more recent ones were linked to more modern day tribes that still use headwrapping starting at infancy. It was said the belief is that this somehow adds brain capacity in reflection of the gods. Meaning not all of these skulls that were examined are the same which was at that time thought to have been a different species.
Funnily enough looking into the giants bit, the second link you posted. There is a lot of information on skeletal giant remains that have been found all over the world. IIRC most recent finds were handed over to the Smithsonian which have since been locked away.
It's a cranial deformation process which they start at infancy while the skull is soft. The process lasts for a few years actually stretching the cranium until they get the desired result.
yeah I follow what you mean, I thought you meant something else. Its like stretching silly putty.
Bone density maybe altered , top part maybe more fragile
It definitely looks it
thats whats happens when you fuck your cousin
I know of an African tribe that does this on purpose to "acquire the powers of gods", so I know for a fact that the elongated skulls belonged to a ruling race of "they want to be praised as gods, but they are not gods".
Definitely something to research. However, I have nothing to go on but just an elongated skull. What is the purpose? What is the difference? I don't know.
Could this be a trick? Easily. Africans use ropes to tie on their head from birth to mold their skulls into shape. Who is to know whether these skulls belonged to the same tribe or similar. Skull formation can be changed even after death. I don't have anything to go on, but elongated skulls are a thing. How important they were, I cannot tell. Were they important or just a "trend" - I cannot tell.
Yes Neanderthals had a practice of skull re-shaping. See my other comment.
Cmon...
Bottom line - strange skulls exist. Any correlation to actual difference in skulls making a difference mentally, physically, etc. - None. I understand that it is an interesting thought and perhaps holds some secret information that I am missing. But that is hardly a different race of people or someone with more potential than a regular human. Still, if you have any arguments, I would like to hear them.
Skulls can be reshaped after death.
What makes you think they added mass?
What about the differences in sutures and massive brain size?
Perhaps you can help me out with sources that I can investigate before I give you my opinion? Never heard of massive brain size before and I wonder what sutures you mean.
Skull binding maybe? When I was younger, I heard of a practice among Muslims of Pakistan (and maybe India) where kids' heads were re-shaped into a more oblong shape.
It's an old practice apparently:

In another culture, neck rings to elongate necks are common for example. In China, there was a practice of binding feet of women to reduce foot size. There's a tribe in Africa that elongate their lower lip by a lip plate.
"Branded as a separate species by scientists"
Who are these "scientists"?
How can anyone form an opinion based on this image?
