The Two Crystal Skulls

[Dr. Tim]

For this discussion, I would like to refer you to: http://www.crystalskulls.us

I would invite you to discuss the real Crystal Skulls - The British Museum & the BH skulls - as I have examined them both in person.

What about the Paris Skull? Isn't it all also real? That is, isn't it also of pre-hispanic origin?

And what of these people who claim there are 13 crystal skulls in a matched set?

Hope to get the answers!

Well, there are a lot more crystall skulls in the world...

[Dr. Tim]

Soory, but there are NO crystal skulls in the world. At least not authentic artifacts. They are ALL modern frauds.

[Mary Xochitl Mayahuel]

Have you examined them, too? If no, why do you think so?

[Dr. Tim]

Yes I have examined both the Mitchell Hedges and the British Museum Skulls many years ago. In truth, I believed there was the possibility they were authentic. However, we have better tools now, and the results are conclusive. Only the MH skulls has not been examine under an electron microscope, because the owner refuses - that in and of itself is the last nail in that coffin.

But it was a good story for a while!

[Mary Xochitl Mayahuel]

I have read that there had been an attempt to reconstruct the face of its (I mean the MH skull's) owner. They say that a young woman's face was reconstructed. Is it true? Personally I still doubt a lot...

[Dr. Tim]

I have seen nothing published on this, though in fact, forensic reconstruction techniques would permit this from the photos alone.

[Dr. Tim]

It is also a certified fake. All of the older skulls are believed to have been made by the same forger in the late 1800s. But they are all frauds, and there is NO evidence that supports their owners claims.

Hello, this is my first post and I want to wish everyone a happy new year. My name is Ron and I am from Texas. I have a couple of smaller sized crystal skulls that are supposedly authentic. They look 'right'. How do I find out for sure if they are the real thing? How can I find out for sure about the rest of the Pre-Columbian collection I recently inherited, including several small crystal bugs and lots of jade? Thanks, Ron.
