Anomalous Skulls


These skulls are displayed in small private museums in Ica, Peru and Merida, Mexico. The data about the skulls is incomplete, making the correct assessment of their age, context with other hominids, as well as placement of their origin extremely difficult.


The “cone-head” specimens were found in the Paracas region of Perú. According to orthodox anthropology, they do not exist. Textbooks' oldest date of appearance of humans in North America is about 35000 BCE and much later for South America, based on the diffusion theory assumptions. The only accepted human types entering the continent are of the modern anatomy. As is obvious from the comparison with a modern human skull, the cranial capacity lies within the modern human range. These three specimens exclude the possibility of random or artificial deformation. They have individual characteristics within the range of overall morphology. There is no doubt that they are closely related and possibly represent quite a distinct branch of the genus Homo, if not an entirely different species.


The "J" type of skull has eye sockets that are about 15% larger than in modern populations. More significant is the enormity of the cranial vault. The estimated cranial capacity ranges between minimum of 2600 ccm to 3200 ccm. The modern humans average size is 1450 ccm.


The "M" type of skull has facial characteristics that are within the range of a normal human skull. The cranial vault, on the other hand, is the largest amongst the displayed specimens; above the 3000 ccm. mark. Also, the two protruding v"lobes" are highly anomalous. J" and "M" types are bordering on biological impossibility. The only explanation imagined for the specimens to be naturally born is if the neoteny (the ability of the species to prolong the growth period before maturing) of both groups had been expanded beyond the range for a modern type of human, for the skull to grow to such a size. That may also mean the average life span of these specimens may have been substantially longer than the average for the modern human type.

Research Objective : To document the skulls. To find out more information about their location, and circumstance of their discovery. To subject the skulls to age tests and other examinations.

Unanswered Questions: How old are the skulls? What race did they belong to? Why haven't educational institution studied them? Why have we never heard about them in mainstream media?

Significance: Completely expands traditional theories on the history of South and Central America. Indicates an entirely different species of hominoid. There are too many of these skulls for it to simply be a genetic defect.
