Range of anthropological skulls has been newly reissued in its entirety. The results are plain to see. All models are the finest castings produced from scientifically made copies of specimens featured in the collection at the Institute. This means that all the details can be reproduced absolutely accurately. This unique replica is supplemented by having it displayed on a pedestal that contains a relief map of the geographical area where the specimen was found.

This skull is an accurate casting of a Sinanthropus skull reconstructed by Weinert and modelled after drawings by Black and Weidenreich after all the original bone specimens had been lost. Sinanthropus belongs to the genus Homo erectus pekinensis (Sinanthropus pekinensis) and can be seen as a typical example of early man.
