Elongated skulls unearthed in ancient Chinese tombs may indicate social status, researchers say… is there another explanation?

The former, in particular, had artificially elongated braincases and flattened bones […]

10,000 year old “weapons factory” discovered by archeologists alongside remains of a wooly mammoth, whose tusks were used as raw materials
