skullying
Skullying is a term used to describe the act of using a skull as a drinking vessel, typically a human skull. This practice is often associated with various forms of ritualistic or ceremonial drinking, and has been documented in various cultures throughout history. The skull is often cleaned and polished to remove any traces of the deceased, and may be decorated with symbols or patterns. The drink is usually poured into the skull through a small hole drilled in the top, and is then consumed directly from the skull. Skullying is considered taboo in many cultures, and is often associated with dark or sinister rituals. However, it is important to note that the practice is not universally condemned, and may be seen as a form of cultural heritage or tradition in some contexts. Despite its controversial nature, skullying remains a topic of interest and debate among anthropologists, historians, and cultural studies scholars.
