| Human Child Skulls and Skeletons - - Bone Clones produces a series of Child Skulls and Skeletons that provides excellent examples of ages ranging from four months through adolescence. We produce skeletons of a 14-16-month-old, a 5-year-old (both modern and archaic), and an adolescent estimated to be between 15 and 18 years of age. (Such a pristine example of an adolescent skeleton is very rare.) We also produce a partial skeleton of a 13-year-old. These skeletons are offered in articulated and disarticulated versions. Half skeletons are also available. Postcranial bones, which are listed on the disarticulated skeleton page, can be purchased individually. We also produce many medical quality skulls with visible underlying dentition, appropriate for all students learning about tooth development and eruption patterns, as well as with the Calvarium Cut, enabling the study of the endocranium. Note about age: For the sake of simplicity, we refer to these skulls by a specific age. We realize that it is not possible to attribute so particular an age to a skull and that assigning a range is much more accurate. In fact, such a range has been assigned to each skull in our Consultant Osteologist's report, now available on the website and to all who purchase the item. However, for ease of reference we refer here to the skulls by a specific age. Please see our Human Analysis Report Category for a list of our available reports. Please also see our Human Fetal Skulls and Skeletons and our Human Adult Skulls categories. |
