DOS SNES NES
First appearance	Mario is Missing! (1993)

Thehuman skull is an item in thePC,SNES, andNES versions ofMario is Missing! It is a fossil depicting a member of theHomo rudolfensis species (and notHomo habilis as the game claims). It gets stolen from its rightful place in theNational Museum of Kenya when a bunch ofKoopa Troopas cause chaos inNairobi. It is taken back byLuigi when he travels through the city, but as he does not recognize it, he asks other people within the city about it. All of them recognize its ancient history, and they tell Luigi to return the skull to the museum. He eventually gains enough information to do just that, bringing the human skull to the museum's information booth and reopening it to the public.
