I could never say what they wanted to do with it so.... oh well if you look at it closely you might see it too.
Although extreme cases of hydrocephalus can cause an elongation of the skullcap, this one looks more like a fake. I tend to agree that it's not intended to be human.

The way the teeth are positioned in the front shows a significant bone loss in the upper jaw area and the crest above the eyes is very flattened. I worked with a paleopathologist for a quarter and we never saw anything like this.

Then again, genetics can do some really funky stuff.
