Scientists studying a mysterious skull discovered in Papua New Guinea
88 years ago have said they believe it belonged to an early victim of a
violent tsunami in the southwest Pacific 6,000 years ago.
The skull, named for the village of Aitape near where it was discovered, has been an item of longstanding archaeological interest because it is one of only a few rare skeletal remains to have been recovered from the area.
