Subject: The Near Truth About The Indiana Jone Skulls.
May 23, 2008.
Here is some more information about the skulls shown
in the movie about Indiana Jones.
All of the skulls so far as I know, in existence
today don't have the elongated back part of the skull.
They look similar to a regular person or a Grey.
This information come from the Co-spiracy Magazine.

CRYSTAL SKULLS ARE HERE TO SAVE US DEPARTMENT -
Se-ret of the Skulls -- The Story Behind the Latest
"Indy" Movie
A tale of archeological intrigue as captivating as
any Indiana Jones plot is behind his new death-defying
adventure in the "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull", which
was released on May 22.
"We always find an artifact that is real, that people
believe in, that archaeologists have looked for or
already found and that has a supernatural aspect to
it," George Lucas told journalists at Cannes.
The story began in 1924 when famed British
banker-turned-adventurer Frederick Mitchell-Hedges,
then on a search for the lost continent of Atlantis in
the Central American jungle, turned up a sculpted human
skull carved in a block of translucent quartz crystal.
His daughter, who toured the world with it until her
death at 100 in 2007, claimed experiencing strange
sensations on touching it and having dreams of ancient
Mayan rituals at night.
Dubbed the "Skull of Doom" due to its supposed
supernatural power to bring misfortune, the artifact ,
Mitchell-Hedges said, was close to 3,600 years old.
Subsequently other crystal skulls turned up, some
finding their way into prized museum collections,
others privately owned -- and all giving rise to
speculation on their origins and use.
Some said the skulls were wrought by aliens, others
that they contained p-ychic energy.
"All of the artifacts that have been looked for have
never been proven to exist or have been proven to have
the powers that have been ascribed to them," Lucas
added. "But there are a lot of people who believe in
it."
But over the past decade experts voiced growing
doubts over the Aztec origin of the crystal skulls, one
of which is in the British Museum, another at
Wa****ngton's Smithsonian Institute.
And last month, a Paris museum acknowledged its own
star exhibit crystal skull was not what it was cracked
up to be.
One of only a dozen such skulls known to exist
worldwide, the Quai Branly museum's piece was acquired
in 1878 from another Indiana Jones-type explorer,
Alphonse Pinart, as an Aztec masterpiece believed to be
hundreds of years old, the remnant of an ancient and
mysterious civilization.
The museum now says that rather than dating from the
Aztec period, it was probably made in the 19th century.
From May 20 the Paris skull goes on view to coincide
with the world release of the fourth installment in
Harrison Ford's archaeologist's adventures since the
1981 blockbuster "Raiders of the Lost Ark".
Legend has it that the Paris skull represents the
Aztecs' Mictlantecuhtli, who reigned over the land of
the deceased, Mictlan. Reuniting all 12 existing skulls
plus a supposed-to-exist 13th could prevent the earth
from tipping over, according to fable.
The Quai Branly said results of an analysis of its
skull in 2007-2008 by the country's C2RMF research and
restoration center "seem to indicate that it was made
late in the 19th century."
The London skull was examined twice, in 1996 and
2004, and both studies tended to prove it was a fake,
though the final conclusions have not been made public.
Fa****oned in clear quartz crystal and 11 centimetres
(4.4 inches) high, the Paris skull is marked by grooves
and perforations that "reveal the use of jewellery
burrs and other modern tools," the museum said.
"Never has such technical precision been found in
pre-Colombian art."
C2RMF engineers Thomas Calligaro and Yvan Coquinot
told AFP that three months of analysis of the skull
highlighted that the piece "is certainly not
pre-Columbian, it shows traces of poli****ng and
abrasion by modern tools."
Analysis by a particle accelerator had also shown
traces of water dating from the 19th century, they
said.
Like the London skull, the Paris piece was once in
the hands of Eugene Boban, a controversial Paris dealer
in archeological objects believed to be well aware of
the production of fake antiquities.
But though no crystal skull yet found at
archeological digs has proved to be authentic, the 12
located around the world continue to arouse interest
and speculation.
Apart from the Paris, London and Smithsonian skulls,
nine belong to private individuals -- the skull of
doom, the Sha-Na-Ra skull, the synergy skull, the Max
skull, (JW I have seen this skull that was exhibited
by a nice lady who spoke about the skull to a group
of people in a UFO convention. While she was going
to talk about the skull a number of people lined up
in the room where she was giving a lecture and thought
they were going to be able to touch and be healed
by the skull. The lady explained that she wasn't going
to use the skull in that way and asked them to
sit down. This nearly caused a riot but everybody
settled down and listened to her lecture. Later on
she was sitting down in the lobby of the hotel when
a person came by and asked to see the skull. I was
there also. She took the skull from a small bag
similar to a bolling ball carrying bag and let the
person look at the skull. I saw all of this happen
at a distance of about 30 feet away but I chose not
to get out of my chair that I was sitting in.) the
Mayan skull, a so-called E.T. skull, the amethyst
skull, the reliquary cross skull and the pink crystal
skull.
Each skull was supposed to correspond to 12 worlds in
which human life was present. They were brought by the
Itza, the ancient people of Atlantis, to their
civilisation in order to pass on their knowledge to
man.
The 13th world, the land, also had its own crystal
skull, and all 13 skulls were kept in a great pyramid
by the Olmecs, the Mayas and ultimately the Aztecs.
The Aztecs are said to have been responsible for the
dispersal and loss of the skulls, which when brought
together possessed great powers, including being lined
up on the last day of the Mayan calendar -- December
21, 2012 -- to prevent the earth from tipping over.
