THE STARCHILD SKULL
In addition to
writing and lecturing, Lloyd Pye is Director of the Starchild
Project, a research organization that has been investigating
the Starchild Skull since February of 1999.
Lloyd initially thought the skull's
unusual physical characteristics
must be the result of some kind of deformity, but he soon learned no
technically valid explanation for it existed. The most unusual
features of the skull include bone that is half as thick and heavy
as normal human bone but is significantly more durable; fibers and
residue within the matrix of the bone; and an abundance of skull
deformations that would be fatal in any normal human. The Starchild
Skull is unique in every significant aspect.

ABOUT THE
STARCHILD SKULL
The Starchild Skull is a human-like bone skull independently
radiocarbon dated at 900 years old (+/- 40 years). It is
unlike any other skull that has ever been found or presented
for inspection. It is unique in the
world.
The "Starchild" name resulted from early X-rays of a maxilla
fragment detached from the skull. It had two visible teeth
and five unerupted crowns embedded in the bone above. That,
combined with a slightly-less-than-normal-adult size of the
skull and the infant size of the maxilla fragment indicated
a child of 5 or 6. However, subsequent examination by
experts has led them to suggest that this age is not
necessarily accurate.
From extremely shallow eye sockets to total lack of frontal
sinuses, the Starchild skull's physical traits cannot be
accounted for by any known combination of deformities. The
bone itself has a biochemical signature more like tooth
enamel than bone, unlike anything currently known. And
inside that unusual bone are microscopic fibers and a red
residue that so far defy explanation. |

 MITOCHONDRIAL
vs NUCLEAR DNA
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is found in cell
mitochondria, and only contains genetic material
from the mother. Nuclear DNA (nDNA) is found in
the cell nucleus, and is a combination of
genetic material from both parents. It is
possible to have the mtDNA from one species, and
nDNA containing genetic material from an
entirely different species. For example, a mule
has a donkey father and a horse mother,
therefore it has horse mtDNA, and will have a
combination of donkey and horse nDNA.
The Starchild Skull has human mtDNA, and nDNA
that is "not similar" to anything listed in the
NIH genetic database. |

DNA BREAKTHROUGH
In 2010 a modified "shotgun" DNA recovery technique
successfully recovered numerous coherent base-pair segments of the
Starchild Skull's
nuclear DNA .
They were analyzed by the National Institutes of Health BLAST
program, and a substantial portion of the Starchild's nuclear DNA
was found to have "no significant similarity" to any DNA previously
found on Earth. This is historic!
A detailed explanation of the 2010
findings is available on the
Starchild Project website
at
StarchildProject.com/DNA2010.htm
Then, in 2011, the same
technique was used to analyze the Starchild Skull's
mitochondrial DNA .
The results were impressively different from anything expected in a
human.
