Totenkopf (German: skull, literally “dead person’s head”) is the German word for skull. The word is often used to denote a figurative, graphic or sculptural symbol, common in Western culture, consisting of the representation of a human skull – usually frontal, more rarely in profile with or without the mandible. In some cases, other human skeletal parts may be added, often including two crossed long bones (femurs) depicted below or behind the skull (when it may be referred to in English as a “skull and crossbones”). The human skull is an internationally used symbol for death, the defiance of death, danger, or the dead, as well as piracy or toxicity.
