    There would have been bonus points for stretching the Hun picture.

    (They practiced cosmetic cranial deformation)

    IIRC they probably did it under Hun influence. Your average Germanic didn’t really.

    I know about it from reading the Wikipedia article on artificial cranial deformation, FWIW.

    I mean, they weren’t literate so there’s only so many things we know to say about them, and that one’s neat. I don’t know, are you concerned I meant it in a mean way somehow?
