One of the hundreds of elongated skulls that were discovered in 1928 at Paracas Peninsula in Peru. Cranial deformation was practiced by the Paracas civilization (800-100 BCE) by tightly wrapping the head in cloth, during the first few years of life, in order to elongate the cranium
Marge, is that you?
Doesn’t she have rabbit ears?
Crump with me sweety
Forget the shape, is no one going to mention they found skulls with WRITING ON THEM?!
You get your baby’s Head elongated for free if you let advertisers write on them.

it would have been even longer if the magick spell had said B I G C H O N G O S.
What about the droid attack on the wookies?
Something to do, I guess.
As long as they don’t get bigheaded about it.
Xenomorphs in Peru definitely wasn’t on my bingo card
Imagine this would still be practiced and how goofy bike helmets would look.
That can’t be good for the grey matter.
Grey matter is overrated anyway.
Streamline the synapses!
But what was the reason they did this? Did they think it looked good?
Talking out my ass here so please research and verify, but at least for the woman with elongated necks, it was originally to make them unattractive to men of other tribes. Over time, this turned into a specific beauty standard for their own tribe.
I mean, you don’t??
It makes me uncomfortable tbh.
Probably makes them uncomfortable, too, especially the neck muscles.
Megamind that you?
Big chongos?

Is something like this hereditary? Asking for a friend.
no, last time I checked, body mutilation isn’t hereditary
No it only happens if you watch Rick And Morty plus Big Bang Theory back to back

There’s a fringe “researcher” (lost ancient civilizations type) called Brien Forester that claims some of these are natural based on their foramen magnum (big hole where spinal cord goes) sitting in a different place. He says you can’t influence that through artificial means.
