Imagine being a Roman and seeing these people for the first time, looking not quite human nor normal.
How the fuck does that even happen? I've seen Mayan skull elongation, which is pretty bad, but this looks like the skull actually grew twice the size it normally does. I know nothing about the matter, but really have to doubt this sort of thing is possible barring a major deformity.
>not having a skull elongation fetish
dunno this kinda looks hawt
Imagine using her skull elongation as a blowjob aid.
imagine her brain just rolling back and forth in there
idk i don't get it, that must cause some serious health issues
>Did all the Huns actually look like this head wise?
IT IS NOT KNOWN IF ALL OF THEM HAD THAT CRANIAL STRUCTURE.
THESE LONG SKULLS THAT ARE BEING FOUND ALL OVER THE WORLD NOW BELONG TO THE ORIGINAL ARYANS.
THE HUNS WERE TURANIANS, NOT ARYANS; THE FACT THAT THIS CRANIAL STRUCTURE IS FOUND IN HUNS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE ORIGINAL TURANIANS WERE RACIALLY ARYAN, THE PEOPLE THAT WERE TO BECOME THE ORIGINAL TURANIANS SEPARATED FROM THE REST, AND CHANGED THEIR LIFESTYLE, WHEN THEY MIGRATED TOWARD THE STEPPES, THUS, THEY EVENTUALLY BECAME RACIALLY DISTINCT, LOSING THEIR ARYAN MORPHOLOGY.

THAT CRANIAL STRUCTURE IS NOT THE RESULT OF CRANIAL ELONGATION.
Not only is it possible, you can get pretty dramatic deformations even accidentally, read up on the Toulousian variant:

There don't actually seem to be major health issues as long as you aren't cutting off blood flow and the skull is still reasonably wide. This might be too narrow, for example:
Cranium expansion has shown no side effects and scientists have found no cognitive differences between a Normal skull and a super extended one, at least in Peruvian samples.
The brain is almost supernaturally plastic in any case:

>“It is hard for me [to say] exactly the percentage of reduction of the brain, since we did not use software to measure its volume. But visually, it is more than a 50 to 75 per cent reduction,” says Lionel Feuillet, a neurologist at the Mediterranean University in Marseille, France.

>Although it is not unheard of to have part of your brain missing, either congenitally or from surgery, the woman joins an elite club of just nine people who are known to have lived without their entire cerebellum.
>“These rare cases are interesting to understand how the brain circuitry works and compensates for missing parts,” says Mario Manto, who researches cerebellar disorders at the Free University of Brussels in Belgium. The patient’s doctors suggest that normal cerebellar function may have been taken over by the cortex – brain scans should reveal the answer.
It should be noted that the first guy was only borderline retarded, and he had no debilitating physical symptoms:

>At the age of 6 months, he had undergone a ventriculoatrial shunt, because of postnatal hydrocephalus of unknown cause. When he was 14 years old, he developed ataxia and paresis of the left leg, which resolved entirely after shunt revision. His neurological development and medical history were otherwise normal. [!!!] He was a married father of two children, and worked as a civil servant.
>On neuropsychological testing, he proved to have an intelligence quotient (IQ) of 75: his verbal IQ was 84, and his performance IQ 70.
I worry about the quality of the public service in France if people with ~75 IQ are public servants, though.
>"Hey, Tiberius, look at that chink!"

He was a Hun all along.

it was bad enough you're on Veeky Forums

I wonder if the streamlineness made them more arrow retardant in terms of a target to aim at
But what about the Gothic attack on the Romans?
Looks like an alien
That's enough /pol/ for you young man.
I remember reading somewhere that the flathead peoples of the inland northwest did so because of a noticed improvement of the behavior in females with flattened heads vs regular, possibly in L&C's journals. I've remembered incorrect things before, though.
This is a baby hence why it seems so much larger than usual
But yes they did increase it, just like sub Saharans put rings around thejr necks, the Chinese tie feet, and the aztecs drove thorns threw their foreskin
Were the Huns not more of a tribal confederacy of various peoples with ethnic Huns as their ruling class?
What's this about the Aztecs?
What does /pol/ have to do with his post, idiot?
Reminder they also cut off the flesh on their cheeks and burnt the wound
What effect would this have on the brain's function?
>I worry about the quality of the public service in France if people with ~75 IQ are public servants, though.
You do realize that in America, public servants are overwhelmingly likely to be black, right?
Learn to filter tripcunts, it's not worth even your worthless time responding to them.
Head elongation and flattening were both well known cultural norms of Hunnic people so I don't think it'd be THAT awkward to a Roman/Byzantine citizen or soldier by the late 4th to early 5th centuries.
