Are these alien skulls? In December 2012,
Archaeologists in Mexico discovered a burial site from which they
recovered several deformed skulls which could possibly belong to alien
lifeforms or, they can even be human skulls which have underwent a long
and painful process of head-flattening. If you are curious to know more
about these deformed skulls unearthed in Mexico, keep on reading.
This remarkable discovery was made at an
archaeological site near the village of Onavas, south of Sonora. The
site is presumed to be an old burial site and the team who made the
thrilling discovery stated that the twenty five skulls unearthed are
thousands of years old. In fact, it is also presumed that this ancient
burial place could be the first pre-Hispanic cemetery in the state.
Could these Skulls Belong To Aliens?
Thirteen of the 25 skulls were highly
strange. Well, as expected, immediately after the discovery was made,
people started speculating that these distorted and bizarre skulls may
have belonged to ancient aliens who were responsible for the passing on
their teachings to the Maya people. Also, five of the thirteen “alien”
skulls had distorted teeth.
Cristina Garcia Moreno, who is the leader of the archaeological team declared that:
Cranial deformation in Mesoamerican cultures was used to differentiate one social group from another and for ritual purposes. This unique find shows a mix of traditions from different groups of northern Mexico
But, officials from the Institute of
National Anthropology and History declared that this is the first
indication of cranial deformation practices in that area… so if we were
to interpret that, it could mean that if this is the first time cranial
mutilation is found in the area, maybe, we’re not dealing with
intentional skull deformation, but actually, with the discovery of alien remains.
Remember this guy? The very frightening
alien from Ridley Scott’s science fiction movie? Well, he does seem to
bare a striking resemblance to the skulls that were discovered in
Mexico…
What makes these skulls different
from the imaginary alien in the movie are the teeth. As previously
stated, five skulls had distorted teeth. The scientists believe that
this was part of some sort of aging ritual: to symbolize the fact that
they person was no longer a child, but a young adult. This statement is
supported by the fact that all of the 5 skulls with distorted teeth
belonged to boys over the age of 12.
The important discovery also raises a lot
of questions: from a closer analysis of the remains (human, or not) it
would appear that there is no social difference among them, yet, the
scientists can not explain why some of them were wearing jewelry while
others weren’t. Another weird fact about this burial site is the fact
that out of the 25 bodies, only one belonged to a woman.
