[No, Mozart was not trigonocephalic].

A Czorny1, B Ricbourg.   

Abstract

The precise circumstances of Mozart's death and burial remain unclear at now. In this, the ownership of the skull supposedly belonging to the great musician and deposed at the Salzburg Museum is still a matter of controversy. A comparison between the cephalometric dental and cranial characteristics of this skull and portraits of Mozart, either genuine or reconstituted, has been established. The hypothesis of a trigonocephaly reported initially by Puech and Tichy seems to need modification to the benefit of a regional brachycephaly. On the other hand our study does confirm the great probability for this skull to be Mozart's one.
