Abstract:
Material and Method: First all the foramina of the skull were blocked by cotton and the cranial cavity was filled through the foramen magnum by means of a funnel with mustard seeds. The skull was shaken from time to time to fill the cavity entirely. When the skull was filled entirely, then the seeds were poured into a 2000 cubic centimetre measuring cylinder through a funnel. The measuring cylinder was then agitated until it was thoroughly packed and the reading was taken directly. The procedure was repeated for three times for every skull.
