    I've seen one of them being shipped from Indonesia. Anyone know where I could find a few of them listed instead of waiting for one on ebay.

    I'd say you'll find them on the internet.

    Unless you've got some gothic fetish, or worse, going on get one of the approved for medical training casts. Much cheaper for a start and there's more choice of type and no issue with legalities around ownership and transportation. IIRC unless it's considered an antique there are rules and regs around owning human remains.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    College of surgeons or any hospital round Dublin.

    Graveyards, but you'd have to dig for them.

    I've noticed a lot of people have one attached to their bodies, have you considered decapitation?

    You've already got one. Put an ad on gumtree and someone will come and retrieve it.

    Real remains used to be available on eBay apparently.

    Wouldn't that be a business idea?
    Scan your head and get a 3D printout of your own skull.
    Discount for couples and children, wouldn't that make an interesting display in the living room?

    Does it absolutely have to be from that province in China, or would one from a neighbouring province do?

    You joke, but if you're to get a human skull, one from that country would be a likely source.

    Pretty sure you'd need a Cat 1 license to get one, and approval from the department, which barring educational or training need, you probably won't. Why not just get a 3D printed one? You might get one online but I imagine you'll be skirting the wrong side of the law to do so.

    Hera ya go, a load of human skull casts, from different modern human populations. Not cheap mind you.

    May be the OP wants a skull for the ritual side of things, maybe he wants to summon a spirit?

    They were on special offer in Aldi last week - €19.99 Selling like hotcakes.
    I picked up two as Christmas gifts for my nephews.
    I'd doubt there's any left now, but they'll likely have them back in stock soon.
