But people with a small and angled back forehead have a smaller prefontal lobe and are impulsive, with little to no concept of future consequences.

The phrenology debate is a red herring to distract people away from just piling into physiognomy which already encompasses it.

But yes liberal disinfo has been lying to people about known morphological-neurological connections even while other fields like Neanderthal research freely acknowledge it as basic starting principles.

The intelligence of pre human species is inferred from their craniometric volume. Phrenology might be bunk but craniology/craniometry and more broadly physiognomy. Go look up galleries of mug shots of serious felons, don’t you notice they all have a “look” to them?

i bet someone could train an AI algorithm on skull shapes and compare it to cognitive traits and it would turn out to be 99.9% accurate, like that one that can tell the race of someone by a chest xray

Not really unless less you think hard living, poverty and substance abuse is genetic.

The reality is the opposite of what it intuitively looks like. People with sloped foreheads have longer frontal lobes, the slope results from the entire part getting pushed forward, while people with tall foreheads have shortened frontal lobes.

Someone did:

>The phrenological analyses produced no statistically significant or meaningful effects.

What about based occipital bun chads?

Yeah but proper 19th century phrenology took it too far, with highly specialised bumps for "punctuality" or "mawkishness" or "stubbornness"

Was phrenology motivated by anything else than
>those savages = stupid
>us = smart
?

Indeed! Instead we enlightened moderns have written tomes full of insightful measurable behavioral descriptors such as "autism" and "depression" and introverted" and "neuroticism" and so on.

maybe you're thinking of fetal alcohol syndrome

Redditors claim phrenology was all about racism and imperialisms but the truth is 19th century applied phrenology to their co racials way more than they applied it to the brown savages, specifically white criminals
