The Swedish History Museum holds a large collection of bones of various kinds, including human remains. We living humans are both appalled by and attracted to visible evidence of death. The scanned human remains presented on Sketchfab from our museum are important museum artefacts, chosen because they represent a specific historical event. They also represent one of humanity’s worst acts: violence towards other humans. It is therefore our wish that you, as a viewer, use the 3D-models with respect. 

The image shows a human cranium with injuries on its left and front side. A small, square hole above the left eye and on the left cheek bone was probably caused by a pole weapon or a battle axe. The gash across the mouth could have been caused by a sword or a thin bladed axe.The cranium is one of several thousand artifacts found in a mass grave outside Visby on the island Gotland. All remains and objects found on the site stem from a battle between Gotlandic peasants and Danish mercenaries on 27 July 1361.

Cranium with injuries - 260727

This is a simple 3d shape wish can help you with your portraits, the rotation, the tilte and the angle of the camera for the overall shape of the cranium, simplefied as Andrew Loomis did. Called it Loomy because I got inspired by Proko :)
A full head with a jaw coming soon, hope you find this helpful

Cranium and antlers of a male white-tailed deer *(Odocoileus virginianus)*

This species is native to the Americas, as far north as Yukon and as far south as Peru. It has been introduced in Europe, New Zealand, and Caribbean islands.
A population of 700 white-tailed deer in Seneca, New York carries a recessive gene for an all-white coat. About 300 of the 700 deer express this gene.

White-Tailed Deer Skull With Antlers

From the "[Human Evolution Gallery](http://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit/galleries-and-museum-map/human-evolution.html)" at the Natural History Museum in London. 

"The first set of remains to have been found, LB1, was chosen as the type specimen for the proposed species. LB1 is a fairly complete skeleton, including a nearly complete cranium (skull), determined to be that of a 30-year-old female. LB1 has been nicknamed the Little Lady of Flores or 'Flo'." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_floresiensis

I admit that I forgot to take a picture of the object label for this scan but I am failry sure I've identified it correctly based on these images  [1](http://www.nhm.ac.uk/content/dam/nhmwww/discover/human-evolution/human-evolution-family-tree-with-skulls-graphic-hero.jpg) [2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_floresiensis#/media/File:Specimen_LB1.jpg)

Homo erectus (Peking Man) (1979rp10-1)-cranium

**Description:** This is a 3D laser surface scan of the nearly complete cranium of *Toxodon platensis*. The skull was purchased on 26 November 1833 by Darwin. It is between 126,000 and 11,700 years old. 

This has been scanned as part of the Museum’s Darwin Fossil Mammals digitisation project. Find out more at www.nhm.ac.uk/darwinsfossils.

**Comments:** This is the holotype specimen of *Toxodon platensis*. When a new species is proposed, a specimen is chosen to represent the species. This is called the type specimen or holotype. Types are important  and it is the responsibility of museums to care for these and make them available for study.

Skull of Toxodon platensis

Homo erectus georgicus, the skull is dated to 1.77 million years old and it is in good condition. Museum of Natural Sciences (Brussels, Belgium). Made with CapturingReality.

The cranium was the smallest and most primitive Hominin skull ever discovered outside of Africa. In Africa, the Australopithecines and early Homo represent two distinctive evolutionary paths sharing a common ancestor. In Georgia the specimens, with a brain half the size of anatomically modern humans, were the smallest found at around 600 cm³ brain volume. The lenght is about 25 cm.

Paranthropus aethiopicus (2501.1rp19)

Here is our recently completed Llama glama anatomical layout! This specimen is part of our osteology comparative collection here at the Idaho Museum of Natural History. We aren't sure where the specimen came from, as the records are incomplete, but the prep work on this specimen is rather crude. You will notice that the ribs and cranium look particularly rough, and assembling this skeleton was a tough job!

Using Advanced Photogrammetry and other cutting edge technologies I was able to generate a 1:1 Scale 3D Model of The Jebel Irhoud Skull(Cranium and Mandible) using reference video from this publication.

The first of our kind - scientists discover the oldest Homo sapiens fossils at Jebel Irhoud, Morocco

Jebel Irhoud Skull Reconstruction

This model was obtained by applying advanced photogrammetry technologies and cutting edge techniques currently not applied to this field that have allowed me to recreate previously unattainable models like Harbin, Yunxian 2 and now HLD-6. This model represents a reconstruction of the HLD-6 cranium from the Hualongdong paleoanthropological site in Dongzhi County, Anhui Province, China.

The HLD-6 individual lived during the late Middle Pleistocene, approximately 300,000 years ago. Stratigraphic and geochronological studies place the Hualongdong hominin assemblage between roughly 331–275 thousand years ago.

This digital reconstruction was created using published anatomical descriptions and visual references from the study “Craniofacial reconstruction and morphological analysis of the HLD-6 skull” (Acta Anthropologica Sinica, 2025) and scaled using cranial measurements from the supplementary dataset of “The phylogenetic position of the Yunxian cranium elucidates the origin of Homo longi and the Denisovans.”

Hualongdong 6 (HLD-6)

A 3D model of the Cephalax, a terrifying alien entity with a skeletal structure resembling fractured porcelain. The creature features an elongated, conical cranium, hollow black eye sockets, and a permanent rictus grin. Its body is composed of segmented, bone-like plates with dark fissures, and it possesses long, spindly limbs ending in sharp, clawed digits. The model is designed for high-fidelity rendering with realistic subsurface scattering on the bone material.

Cephalax - Bone Wraith

Semi-transparent sphere as the base of the cranium + semi-transparent lower part of the head with neck, bright colored guideline lines based on Andrew Loomis' method. The equator, meridians, jawline help understand head proportions from any angle. Perfect for practicing portrait drawing, studying 3D form, and training perspective. Created in Blender.
