Really ? A child or an old person with dwarfism. Of course you can have fun imagining aliens or mysterious races if you want. |

And then there is "The Starchild" skull. Malformed as it is, DNA tests proved it human, with Native American parents. link |

My guess would be a 'Melusine' – a fake made from various body parts either as a 'curiosity' or outright fake. There are surviving 'mermaids' and maybe a 'dragon' out there, some dating back to the 1600's. |

It looks like a baby with Anencephaly to me. BE WARNED… SOME OF THE IMAGES IN THIS GOOGLE LINK MAY SHOW STILL BORN BABIES (it is a google search for 'Anencephaly baby'): link |

Agree with Insomniac (dude, if that's a typical google search for you, no wonder you have insomnia). A fake would show the metal bits used to hold it together in the X-rays. |

Insomniac Wow. Poor little guys. They never had a chance. Mystery solved then. Thanks Dan |

@ Lion in the Stars, I have a friend who had an Anencephalytic baby (sadly it didn't end well) and is heavily involved with the charity so it is something I knew about and isn't something I normally search for :) Looking at the image here, it seemed pretty obvious to me (because I was aware of the condition). It's all pretty sad, really :( |
