This cast is likely to have been taken from a partially mummified head. This individual was recorded as having died in Edinburgh in 1823. However so far no personal records or documentation has been found to help explain why he was in the city.

AnatomicalMuseum
The collection consists of 12,000 objects and specimens that tell the story of 300 years of anatomical teaching at the University of Edinburgh. About one third of the museum’s collection is related to pathology, anatomy and zoology. This includes models, skeletal remains, dried and fluid preserved specimens. The rest of the collections include phrenology, pharmacology, ethnography, forensics and anatomical and other artworks. The museum displays a number of unique objects including the skull of George Buchanan (tutor to James VI), a dissected body with the lymphatic system injected with mercury (1788) and the skeleton of notorious murderer William Burke (1829). In 2016 the Anatomical Museum was awarded ‘Accredited’ status by Museums Galleries Scotland.
