title: Robert Burns' skull
text: In 1834, Robert Burns' skull was exhumed and multiple casts were made from the head of Scotland's national bard. In the early 19th century, phrenology, a pseudo-science involving the measuring of skulls to predict an individual's personality was widely believed. As a national figure and well known for his works and public persona, Burns' skull was of great interest to phrenologists at the time.
