Unbelievable ‘Alien’ Like Skulls Found in Mexico.
‘Alien’ Like Skull,wow! now that sound pretty unbelievable and doubtful, isn’t it? recently we have posted lots of apocalypse stuff on our site and on our tumblr blog as well, now i am sure this one is more stunning and real that you have ever seen.
According to dailymail report, Archaeologists have uncovered 25 âalienâ-looking human skulls with in a cemetery in Sonora, in northern Mexico. Researchers have found these strange alien-like human skulls at a Mexican cemetery more than a 1,000 years old.
25 skeletons were found in the burial site, out of 13 had intentional cranial deformation and only one was female. Many were ornamented, and five had purposefully mutilated teeth â teeth ground or filed into unconventional shapes.
Now question is that why did they make their skulls deform intentionally?
On this Cristina Garcia Moreno, director of the research project added:
“Cranial deformation in Mesoamerican cultures was used to differentiate one social group from another and for ritual purposes, while the dental mutilation in cultures such as the Nayarit was seen as a rite of passage into adolescence. This is confirmed by the findings at the Sonora cemetery where the five bodies with dental mutilation are all over 12 years in age.”
You can also read more about Artificial cranial deformation on wikipedia, It is done by distorting the normal growth of a child’s skull by applying force. Flat shapes, elongated ones (produced by binding between two pieces of wood), rounded ones (binding in cloth) and conical ones are among those chosen. headbinding begins approximately a month after birth and continues for about six months.
Here is Painting by Paul Kane, showing a Chinookan child in the process of having its head flattened, and an adult after the process.
Of these 25 skulls, 17 were of children, also there were no sign of disease that cause their death, so high number of children pointing that cranial deformation killed them due to excessive force against the skull.
