Crystal Tip:
In Mexican culture each sugar skull represents a departed loved one. They are made beautiful with ornate swirls and color to remind us of the beauty in their life and ours when they were with us. Sugar skulls are meant to be a reminder of the beauty in transitioning from one stage of life to the next. 

Researchers have written dozens of books and hundreds of articles about crystal skulls, few have attempted to explain the origin and purpose of these sculptures. For some, the crystal skulls are 19th-century “hoaxes”; for others, they are extraterrestrial artefacts, while yet others believe they are remnants of a lost civilisation.

Perhaps the most likely explanation is that they are part and parcel of the ancient cultures, particularly the Mayan, that existed in the area of Central America where they were found. Could it be that these skulls were one of the most important relics in the sacred temple complexes? Crystal skulls speak to the imagination, but are some of these skulls and their stories too good to be true?
