ELONGATED SKULLS

Archaeology has discovered that the ancient Chinese elongated the skulls of their babies, they claim that skull reshaping was reserved for high-status individuals and certain families. Heads of babies were modified to signify social status and wealth.

The article says that these skulls found in China could be the oldest elongated skulls. It is written that the skulls are between 5,000 and 12,000 years old.

Does it make you wonder about the Egyptian elongated skulls? The question is did the practice spread from the orient or did the ancient Chinese invade other countries?

History certainly evolves like science does.
