The Starchild Project

Has anyone heard of this one before?

A respected local radio station aired a segment about the Starchild Project. The host, who thinks he's Art Bell, does something like this just a little too often.

The story goes like this: Sixty to seventy years ago, a young Mexican girl goes into a forbidden burial cave and finds 2 skeletons. One is a child with a deformed head. The girl takes the child's skull and keeps it hidden all her life. Just before she dies, she gives it to an American man. Five years later, he gives it to an American couple who now have it.

To make a long story short, a group of "researchers" think it is an alien or a human/alien skull. I'm ashamed to admit that other members of the "team" are from my area of British Columbia. Their findings can be seen at:

An excellent debunking can be read on the website of the New England Skeptical Society:
