Description

Popular Lost Cities author, Childress, tackles the enigma of worldwide cranial deformation along with Canadian - Peruvian anthropologist, Foerster. In a book filled with over a hundred astonishing photos and a colour photo section, Childress and Foerster take us to Peru, Bolivia, Egypt, Malta, China, Mexico and other places in search of strange elongated skulls and other cranial deformation. The puzzle of why diverse ancient people - even on remote Pacific Islands - would use head-binding to create elongated heads is mystifying. Where did they even get this idea? Did some people naturally look this way - with long narrow heads? Were they some sort of elite race that roamed the entire planet? Why do anthropologists rarely talk about cranial deformation and know so little about it? As incredible as it seems, Childress and Foerster discover that cranial deformation was practised on nearly every continent by special groups who believed they were imitating their highly advanced ancestors. This is a mind-blowing trip into the strange past of humans on planet earth.
