La cabeZa de Cromwell

En- una de las salas del Institute Ar
que0l0gico de Londres Sc We expuesta
hace unos d1as La cabeza embalsamada
de este famoso personaje. Como en- Ok
ford Sc guarda piadosamente otro craneo
de Cromwell, son va dos los atribu1dos
al protector. Este fen0meno de bicefa-

pol6gicos; en- tiempos del viejo Alejan-
dro Dumas ensenabase a los visitantes
del tesoro de Aquisgran el craneo de
Carlomagno adulto y Ell craneo de Car
lOmagno muchacho.
Lo que en- ell case de Cromwell induce
a Greer en- la autenticidad de la cabeza
de Londres es la circumstance de hallar-
Sc embalsamada, pues es sabido que ell
cuerdo del protector fue objeto de la
operaci6n dicha Sabese igualmente que
despues, por orden del ParlamentO, ell
cadaver Sc extrajo de la fosa para ser
ahorcado en- Tyburn, y que la cabeza,
separada del troco, Sc expuso en- West

bast0n del cuello al craneo. Tai es, 10

mera vista con La description expresada !;
adviertense ademas en- ella diversas ci-
catrices que Sc eXplican por los ultrajes
de que fue objeto por parte de los enc
migOs de Cromwell Ell iIltimo testimo-
MO favorable la autenticidad del era
neo es que este ha venido conservando-
Sc de padres hijos, desde hace mas de
un siglo, en- la familia Wilkinson, que
nunca puso en- duda la veracidad de la
reIiquia, habiendola adquiridO de manos
de un comerciante de aon-Street, cuyos
padres manten1an relaciones mercanti-
les con los herederos del protector.
No obstante la seguridad de tantos
testimonies juntos, la Universidad de
