Human Female Scaphocephalic Skull BC-193 This skull provides an excellent example of a condition in which the skull is abnormally long and narrow as a result of premature closure of the sagittal suture, with heavy centers of ossification in the line of the suture, usually accompanied by inflammation and atrophy of the optic papillae. This is a very complex specimen. Assessment of race, sex and age are difficult as a consequence of scaphocephaly. There are mixed racial features with a slight preponderance towards the Asian/Black spectrum. Given these racial features, more likely than not, this individual was a female. It is difficult to evaluate age by assessing cranial suture closure because of the premature fusion of the sagittal suture.
