Recent studies of Thomas Aquinas' skull have led to hypotheses regarding his appearance and the cause of his death. Some researchers suggest he may have suffered a cranial haematoma resulting from an accident with a tree, dying at the age of 48. Notably, the 3D reconstruction of his skull aligns with historical paintings of him. However, doubts have been raised about whether this alignment is meaningful if the reconstruction was influenced by the paintings. Furthermore, the diagnosis does not seem to be based on rigorous craniometry, making the findings less scientifically robust. Interestingly, there were some issues with the source website for this research.
