Painting by Paul Kane, showing a Chinookan child in the process of having its head flattened, and an adult after the process.
I (Fruitpunchline (talk)) took a picture of three drawings on an information panel in the Museo Regional de Antropología in Mérida (state of Yucatán) (visited on 2010-08-04) and adapted them for use on Wikipedia.
