Artificial cranial deformation, head flattening, or head binding is a form of permanent body alteration in which the skull of a human being is intentionally deformed. It is done by distorting the normal growth of a child’s skull by applying force, in this case the Mangbetu tribe would use tightly wrapped cloth or raffia around the infants skull.
