Definition(s)
- Craniology, often called craniometry, is the study of the skull or cranium, and the word is derived from Latin. Research has varied from the measuring of the skull to provide information for anthropologists or about evolution, to pseudoscience with people trying to use head shapes and sizes for phrenology, to medical treatment for people who have suffered head injuries.
