Migrated MorphoSource 1 Media File Title: Surface rendering of reconstructed neurocranium Migrated MorphoSource 1 Media Group Title: microCT scan of the neurocranium and derivative files Migrated MorphoSource 1 Media File Description: Mesh file of reconstructed neurocranium. The medial and left parts were reconstructed and the left side was mirrored and fitted against the medial parts. The apparent heart-shape of the dorsal part of the occipital bone is a result of mirroring of a broken bone fragment. Migrated MorphoSource 1 Media Group Description: Scan of the posterior half of the crushed cranium
