The Known History of the Ancient Crystal Skull known as “Synergy”


“Synergy” weighs in at 15.5 lbs‑the size of a large fully grown adult human being.  Synergy is the name of this skull -- or more precisely, Synergy is the quality that this skull represents. The definition of Synergy is the cooperative action of two or more independent entities, to bring about a total effect or change which is greater than what either can accomplish alone. In other words 1+1=3 or even more.

The exact origins of ‘Synergy’ are not known, however, it came to light in the Western world in about 1980 when it was acquired as a gift from an native Elder by a European businessman known as George.  He was told that the skull had come into the custody of a much loved Catholic nun, in the early 1700’s, in Peru.  She was quite old when she died, and she passed on what she called “an inheritance from a lost civilization” to a young native boy and his father, asking them to safeguard it until the ‘right’ person came to get it and share its message with the world.  “Your heart will know the person,” she said.  That boy’s ancestor gave it to George almost three centuries later.

In 2001 while visiting the U.S. on business, George suddenly gave the skull to Sherry Whitfield Merrell. When asked why he would want to do such a thing he replied "I don't know. I think too much with my head and I need to go with my gut, my heart."  George’s intensity and the sincerity of his words struck a chord within Sherry, and she accepted the skull and the responsibility.

Fascinating information about the history of this skull came to light in 2005.  A representative of an aboriginal tribe, living on an island near Australia, saw a photo of Synergy in a newspaper. He came to see and experience Synergy for himself.  It was a profound reunion for him.  When he traveled back to the island, he took photos and a small carved amethyst skull that had been with Synergy. He presented them to the tribal Chief. When the members of the tribe saw these things, they spent an entire night rejoicing, feasting and telling stories about their ancestors.  Their story is that they had had Synergy in their care for many generations before they 'sent it out' via a reed boat or canoe from the island, to South/Central America. It was to await the 'right person' who would eventually come for it and take it elsewhere. The tribe reveres skulls and has other old crystal skulls in their possession at this time and they are an integral part of their religion and beliefs. Their story also indicates that Synergy was not carved there - it was a legacy from a lost civilization, even back then. Where was this crystal skull carved? It’s doubtful we'll ever know. It seems to be too old to follow back past any point that the tribe’s oral history can account for.

A forensic scientist, who reconstructs faces from the actual skulls of deceased persons, examined Synergy. In his professional opinion, this crystal skull was definitely made to closely match the skull of an actual human being. He was sure that using a special type of clay, he could reproduce a face on the crystal skull. He explained that it is not possible to take an art object that looks like a skull to the unpracticed eye, and then use it to reconstruct a face that actually looks like a human, no matter how carefully the artwork was constructed.  An actual skull had to have been used as the original model for Synergy.
