Today’s Flickr photo with the most hits: this skull of a Hun female, which can be seen in the Hungarian National Museum.

You can see the skull is elongated (an ancient aesthetic), an effect probably produced by tightly binding the skull in infancy / childhood. Oddly enough, the photo was used in the series ‘Ancient Aliens’ - for what purpose I don’t know. I don’t watch it - but it tickles me that they wanted it.

Deformation usually begins just after birth for the next couple of years until the desired shape has been reached or the child rejects the apparatus .

There is no established classification system of cranial deformations. Many scientists have developed their own classification systems, but none have agreed on a single classification for all forms that are seen.

In Europe and Asia, three main types of artificial cranial deformation have been defined by E.V. Zhirov (1941, p. 82):

Round

Fronto-occipital

Sagittal.
