The mystery of El Cementerio in Mexico
Cristina Garcia Moreno from Arizona State University, who worked on the project explained that like "deformed" skull found some time ago at the cemetery in Spain. "We do not know why populations in Spain and in Mexico would specially deformed head" Moreno insisted in a recent interview for ABC News.
"We assume that the deformation of the human skull was part of an ancient ritual, which took place about 1000 years ago. Deformation can be achieved by binding of a human head between two blocks of wood in order to exert pressure on the skull. A striking, however, is why the same type of the skull appeared in a completely different part of the world"adds the researcher.
