Anthropological skull, Cro-Magnon, Homo sapiens

This anthropological skull is cast after a reconstruction of the skull from a

Cro-Magnon man, believed to be approximately 20,000 to 30,000 years old (from the Ice Age of the Neo-Paleolithic era).

The skull measures 21.5 x 15 x 24.5 cm and weighs approximately 0.9 kg. It comes on a stand showing a map of the area where the original skull was found.

Like other anthropological skulls, this skull is also produced from scientific copies of specimens from the collection of the "Institute of Anthropology and Human Genetics for Biologists" at the Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe University, Frankfurt/Main, Germany.

It should be added that the original skull (of which this model is a cast) was found in a cave in Vézèretal/southern France, 1868.

The model is aimed at those with special interests, can serve as a unique eye-catcher or be used to understand the anatomy of the skull of early Homo sapiens in Europe.
