The discovery of this baffling artifact is a controversial matter. It was brought into prominence by British explorer F. A. Mitchell-Hedges, who claimed that his daughter unearthed it in 1924. It now appears that this tale of the skull's discovery was entirely fabricated. Mitchell-Hedges apparently purchased the skull at an auction at Sothebys in London, in 1943. This has been verified by documents at the British Museum, which had bid against Mitchell-Hedges for the crystal artifact.

What are crystal skulls and where can they be found?

A crystal skull is defined as follows:the original definition was related to skulls made from quartz crystals that are shaped like a human bone skull. There are three type of quartz crystal skulls defined:1) contemporary or new skulls - the ones being done by modern carvers who use diamond tip tools since quartz itself is 6.5 out of 10 on the mohr sale of hardness, you need a substance as hard or harder to carve a piece of quartz2) old crystal skulls - crystal skulls carved or created over 100 years ago (so about the 19th century or before) up to about 1000-2000 years ago (this ending date is in debate) - usually made by primitive cultures or tribes, many have seen to have been discovered so far in Mexico or Central America.3) ancient crystal skulls - crystal skulls carved or manufactured (with these crystal skulls the way they were created is a great mystery) from 1000-2000 years ago to 5,000, 10,000, 100,000 or even older - what sets these crystal skull apart from other is the energy contained or surrounding these artifacts and the quality of how the crystal skulls were made - some do not look like human bone skulls but still are skull like.To know about theories of the origin of the crystal skulls, which is not part of this question, we recommend to visit our website shown below.The old and ancient crystal skulls are being found near ancient ruins within Mexico or Central America but within the past 10-15 years we are hearing reports of skulls coming out of many other locations (Australia, Nepal and Tibet, China, Europe, South America, etc ...) - the idea being that many of the indigenous cultures on the planet have legends about crystal skulls and that they have been passed down from generation to generation as well as traveled all over the world. Since crystal skulls are made of quartz crystal, an inorganic substance, we have no dating system to know the true date of creation. In our work we have found it is important in our research to include both scientific and paranormal methods to discover how the skulls were made, who may have worked with them and what is their purpose.Crystal Skulls are also being referred to other skulls being carved from all type of gemstones today - actually in Mongolia and China many old or ancient non-quartz skulls are coming out - they don't have the same type of energy as the quartz skulls but it is important to study all these type of skulls to help us know why they are important, why so many people wish to have one of their own and why the indigenous people consider them sacred artifacts which are keys to humanity future.thank youJoshua Shapiroa crystal skull explorerwww.v-j-enterprises.com/cs.htmlwww.youtube.com/crystalskullexplorer
