How can scientists figure out the age of a person by looking at their skull?

Study the skull of the skeleton. Not only does the size of the skull change as we age, the joints or fontanels between the bones change, becoming smaller with age. If the skeleton has wisdom teeth, the person was past the age of 18. If there is significant bone loss, it indicates a more advanced age.
