Samoan crania
Samoan crania refers to the skulls of people from Samoa, an island nation in Polynesia. These skulls often display characteristic features such as broad, rounded heads with prominent cheekbones and robust jaw structures. They provide valuable insights into the genetic, cultural, and environmental influences on physical appearance within Polynesian populations. Studying these skulls helps anthropologists understand migration patterns, health, and historical lifestyles of native Polynesian peoples. Overall, Samoan crania are important for understanding human diversity and the evolutionary history of Pacific populations.
