more common than they told us?
ah... it started with the Cretan-Minoans is my guess... it's so like them to take trophies

* create fear?
The Iberian practice of decapitated heads, parallel to that documented among Celtic groups in central and southern Europe, involved the decapitation of individuals, the post-mortem treatment of their skulls, and their subsequent public display, most likely as trophies associated with war, power, and social prestige. Until this study, physical evidence of this ritual in the northeastern peninsula was confined to sites of those northern peoples, such as Ullastret (Girona) for the Indigetes, or Burriac and Ca n’Oliver (Barcelona) for the Layetani.
