Scientists who have studied the skulls the are puzzled by their creation. The lasers and tools needed to create these skulls didn't even exist in the rule of the Mayans or Aztecs! In addition, crystals are always carved with the direction that the crystal naturally grows, but these were carved against the grain, which should have caused the material to shatter. 9 Y6 a1 J" r$ |5 m' I% { H
