| Human Skulls - Human Skull replicas by Bone Clones® are an excellent alternative to natural bone for the teaching of anatomy, whether elemental or advanced. We manufacture a large selection of human skulls (and skeletons) ranging from pre-natal to elderly, including sex and ancestry differences. We have several skulls designed for teaching more advanced anatomy. These include calvarium cut skulls, disarticulated skulls and color-coded skulls. We also have a selection of human skulls showing evidence of trauma (e.g., gunshot, hammer blows) and pathology. Considered the best models available for use in teaching comparative and medical anatomy, as well as forensic anthropology, our casts are accurate reproductions of the best originals available and more durable than natural bone. |
