Compare that with the one next to it if mod don't block it. The head shaped like they are is no accident. Now compare their faces Here you go:   http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/5514/africanyn8.jpg  They're indeed identical! :rolleyes:     ...they are is no... Did you ever attend to school? So many illiterate Afronuts pretend to think they know what they are talking about, yet don't even use correct grammar!... and they demand we take their word for it? :rolleyes:  The face is the more important issue, not the back of the head, since many cultures engaged in this practice, and no, the faces of these two do not match. Of all the studies I have read concerning the skull and genetics, the Egyptians have never practiced head-binding. The Egyptian head that you see is fashioned after the Amarna art style - it was during this time that a rapid change in art and religion took place. This artistic style was never present prior to the reign of Akhenaten and it discontinued after his death. It was simply a type of art or temporary fad as we have seen other statues of Akhenaten and Nefertiti depicting realistic individuals.  My first thought was head binding... but as KellsCross said it can also be an art style...    Notice the forehead and jaw shape are different the only weird feature is the alien head...     KellCross are you sure Egyptians didn't practice head binding? the King Tut reconstruction certainly looks like a deformed skull... :confused:
