Okay -- a LOT freaky. The teeth in the center skull had implants characteristic of ancient Mayan remains -- and, I suspect, other ancient peoples of the Americas. The skull to the left had incisions in the front teeth. Ditto on the suspected provenance.

Gotta wonder why no one's shown up to repatriate these folks.
