We got these type of culture still. I dont remeber what they are called, but they wrap banana leafs around the new borns head. And then when they grow, their head will rise upwards. I dont think that those skulls they found, had any better sense than other people.

Agreed, but brain growth is interesting. This may sound like a goofy, not rhetorical though, question. When born we have a brain the size of our head and as we grow our brain grows until the onset of adulthood. So, do we stop growing because our brain stops growing or does brain stop because we stop growing? If the latter, wouldn't elongated skulls mean larger brains?

[Maybe, more likely they were the fallen angels that Enoch writes about.
...and maybe (and just maybe) fallen angels are also extraterrestrials.
The first skull presents problems of its own. The frontal part of the skull seems to belong to an individual of the pre-Neanderthal family, but the lower jaw, though more robust than modern human type, has a modern shape and characteristics.
The shape of the cranium does not have any comparison with the Erectus,
Neanderthal types, nor the modern human type.
Some minor Neanderthal characteristics are present, as is the occipital ridge on the bottom back of the skull and the flattened bottom of the cranium, other characteristics point more towards Homo Erectus.
The angle of the cranial bottom is, though, unusual.
We cannot exclude the possibility of a deformed individual in this case, but it is highly unlikely that the angle of the frontal part would require a modification of the lower jaw in the process of growing to resemble modern human types with their projected chin rim.
The answer seems to be that the skull belongs to a representantive of an unknown premodern human or humanoid type.
As is obvious from the comparison with a modern human skull, the cranial capacity lies within the modern human range.
This is not surprising, since the late Neanderthals and early modern humans (Cro-Magnon) had larger cranial capacities (both roughly 1600 ccm to 1750 ccm) than modern humans (av. 1450 ccm).
The decrease of the cranial capacity (sudden at that — the specimens of modern humans after about 10500 BCE have smaller craniums) is a puzzling matter, but that’s another story.
No less puzzling is what a representative of a premodern human type is doing on the South American continent.
According to the orthodox anthropology, this skull simply does not exist, because it cannot be.
Textbooks’ oldest date of appearance of humans in North America is about 35000 BCE and much later for South America, based on the diffusion theory assumptions.
The only accepted human types entering the continent are of the modern anatomy.
There are some other sources that place all types of human genus in both Americas at much earlier dates based on numerous anomalous finds, but the academe sticks to its preconceived notions, no matter what.
It’s safer.

It's clearly cranial binding, for the person who asked for photographs of the results:

There's lots of similar things going on in the world today, here's an example which uses rings:
Pakistani Rat Children
So the follow-up question is of course; if these people became smarter than regular humans, how come they didn't take control and dominate this planet?
