.....for teaching???? As in the skull is hit by any weapon, then smashed into pieces. The student then will have to reconstruct the skull and figue out the weapon that first hit the skull. Will the replica recieve marks by the weapon and smash into pieces like a real human skull?

Museum quality replicas represent the finest skull recreations possible. In a tedious molding, casting and finishing process, every detail of the original real bone specimen is expertly captured and recreated including the bone texture, color and all anatomical features such as foramina and nasal concha. These replicas are so convincing that they are often mistaken for real skulls. Museum quality replicas are suitable for display, hands-on education and classroom teaching.

  1. A Museum Quality Replica is not made of bone and will not break the same as a real skull.

    In order to use replicas in teaching weapon damage to the human skull, a real skull which had been suitably damaged would need to be replicated (piece by piece).  This would be very expensive but has been done.  Some replicas are currently available commercially.
