Rabbit skull (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in left lateral view. The triangle shows a strong basic cranial flexion (© Hadjouis)Figure 7.2. Head and body quadruped posture of the cape hare (Lepus capensis). The postural balance is broken due to an excessive elongation of the hind limbs, and it finds itself more often than not in a sitting rather than standing position. In reality, the animal if not running is sitting, the head is positioned above the withers (© Hadjouis and Le Bihan)

Skull seen from below of a Homo sapiens from the Upper Paleolithic from Afalou (Algeria) showing significant basic cranial asymmetry with rupture of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis followed by left rotation (right in the photo) from the temporal bone (mastoid apophyses, TMJ, zygomatic arches, malar, maxilla). The result is a torsion of the face (© Hadjouis)Figure 16.5. Child’s skull in facial view from the necropolis of the Saint-Nicolas church in La Queue-en-Brie showing significant facial asymmetry (torsion of the face and tilting of the left hemi-face). Note the presence of a mesiodens, a tiny supernumerary tooth, between the two central incisors (© Barrau)Figure 16.6. Same individual, seen from below. Note that the banana shape of the asymmetry is even more impressive at the base of the skull and the lower parts of the face (© Barrau)Figure 16.7. Facial asymmetry suggestive of peripheral facial paralysis with respect to a strong asymmetry of tartar deposition by salivary flow on the left maxillo-mandibular jugal teeth. Associated with this paralysis are malformations on the right side, in particular the reduction in height of the maxilla and the zygomatic arch, Merovingian necropolis of Saint-Christophe de Créteil (© Allard)Figure 16.8. Base of the skull of the individual with peripheral facial paralysis showing strong asymmetry. Lateral flexion rotation has caused all the left parts to advance, in addition to flattening the hemioccipital (occipital articular surface, mastoid process, TMJ and zygomatic arch). Similarly, note the strong erosion of the articular tuberosity of the temporal bone, a sign of unilateral mandibular dislocation (© Allard)Figure 16.9.

Skull of Iberomaurusian child no. 4 from Afalou in right lateral view. The face shows alveolar-dental prognathism on a psalidodental joint.

Skull of a mechtoid man from Oued Guettara (Algeria) in facial view showing, in addition to extraction of the upper incisors, bilateral para-masticatory wear of the jugal teeth. The oblique wear from inside to outside is due to a para-function linked to a particular activity such as hide tanning (© Hadjouis)Figure 16.16.
