Assumptions about Neolithic plastered skulls in the Levant are "railroaded" upon us in two different ways: concerning age and sex, and the use of intentional postmortem dental evulsion. These two paths are eventually united to solidify the argument in favor of an ancestor cult of male elders. New scientific evidence is presented to disprove the old epistemologies regarding age, sex, and the use of postmortem dental evulsion.
