The
question is, “What is Skull Binding?
I read an article about an
ancient woman’s remains that’s estimated to be around 2,000 years old that had
being discovered in central Russia Chelyabinsk
Scientists have dismissed
the idea that this new discovery was of an alien female and suggest that her
elongated skull was due to it being tied up.
Apparently this is what
the tribes did to the children in those days. However there is no mention of
any other remains found or if the same was done to the males.
Is it possible that the
skull could be elongated at the time of birth whilst the babies’ soft spot on
the head is still visible?
But wouldn’t the force of
binding incur pain to the infant and possibly damage the brain if the skull was
bound to elongate it?
Centuries ago Chinese
women and young girls had their feet bound that kept them small. So with this
in mind I don’t completely understand how a head becomes elongated and longer
rather than smaller and shorter if bound?
The other thing that
puzzles me is how do they know that this actually took place, are there records
on this ancient tribe?
With no mention of rope or
material fibres found should we believe everything we read?
What do you think?
