[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 2005183, member: 26302"]I will check it out sir. Regarding skull deformation in Kushan times, remember the Kidarites, (or whatever the name of this group was before Kidara), were on the forefront of the "hunnic wave", and displace the Kushans from first Sogdia and then Bactria.
