This. Here we have a strange shaped skull being found in an area where the ancient human inhabitants were known for binding their skulls into strange shapes. Now, I'm no doctor, but I am at least partially sane, and I think that qualifies me to say "No, it's not an alien skull... you silly sausage"spasicle said:It's well known that the ancient civilizations like inca/aztec/mayan/olmec would distort the heads of infants to make them bigger and elongated. It's how their gods are depicted and they want the children to look similar. This is just one of hundreds of deformed skulls found through-out burial sites.
I'll be honest, that sounded kinda jerk-y.Earnest Cavalli said:Peruvian Scientists Discover Alien Corpse

Of course, it's possible that the cranial-binding explanation is actually an elaborate cover story.Therumancer said:The way I look at it is that if it is an alien it doesn't matter to all us plebes because that information would probably never be released to the public despite all common sense, this makes it interesting, but largely irrelevent.
One point of consideration though is that we all know about cranial binding, deformities, and other things, and I'd imagine that was the reason for calling in multiple experts from more than one nation to examine the remains. The fact that the experts are not mentioned by name is actually the most compelling reason to doubt this, if not for that detail I might suspect they had found something unusual as opposed to this being an intentional overreaction for the lulz.
Nothing to do with this article, but truthfully I think those people who are so quick to scream "hoax" due to there being so many of them, are just as bad as those perpetuating the hoaxes. Especially when it comes down to a lot of debunkers and such being just as bad as the hoaxsters in many cases.
Curious about that too. If it starts looking like Lilu's dna (5th Element) I'll get my welcome mat out.DTWolfwood said:what they cant run some DNA test or something? Its not like the bones are fossilized. There should be some traces of it left over some where.
Yeah... For safety... I'll go with that. >.>RoseArch said:Welp, time to plug up my behind. You know, for safety.
It's very easy to say hoax to things because the sceptics require people to follow the scientific method.Therumancer said:Nothing to do with this article, but truthfully I think those people who are so quick to scream "hoax" due to there being so many of them, are just as bad as those perpetuating the hoaxes.
