Why do people find those skulls soo interesting? Their shape isn't genetic at all. Some ancient societies would bind newborns' heads with rope shortly after birth, so when the babies aged, their skulls would fuse into that shape. Hardly anything worthy of proving deities.

It was the DNA that caused the interest not the shape.

That's the thing though. There's no difference in the DNA whatsoever in those skulls, because the shape has nothing to do with genetics.
