In 2015, Dr. Kristin Leith, University of Exeter, conducted an investigation into two donors; Major Arnold Riley and Lieutenant HJR Gould. These men had presented over-modelled skulls from Papua New Guinea and Vanuatu (respectively). At the time RAMM knew very little about them. However, Kristin was able to unravel the mystery of these men. We wondered how they had acquired such curiously decorated heads.
