                    [Summary] => It belonged to an ordinary man buried in a limestone cave, not a one-eyed giant who, according to tribal folklore, once roamed the archipelago.


Thus, said Angel Bautista, a zooarcheologist of the National Museum, of the so-called "cyclops skull" found in a limestone cave in the hinterlands of Bohol.

"We have returned the skull to Bohol," he said. The National Museum refused requests by The STAR to secure photographs of the strange skull.

The strange skulls were reportedly found in limestone caves in the hinterlands of Bohol, at Mt. Palaupau in Sumilao, Bukidnon, and in some parts of Agusan.
