This skull has an uncut cranium, allowing you to appreciate the intact structures of the skull. This skull is from a medical estate and larger than average, which may be indicative of a condition such as gigantism. The robust cranial vault and expanded facial structure suggest excessive growth hormone activity, which could have influenced the overall size and proportions. There are no teeth present, as well as a missing mandible. There is also slight damage to the eye orbit, palatine bone, and maxilla. There is a slight postmortem crack on the frontal bone extending from the brow ridge. This responsibly sourced specimen provides a valuable resource for medical students, osteologists, and researchers studying the effects of pathology on skeletal structures.
