The Pig Skull is the cleaned skull of an adult pig. It is an animal part left over from butchering.
It has two uses. Smash Pig Skull breaks it into Bone Pieces, Animal Teeth and Pig Tusk, the raw stuff of bone crafts and tusk jewellery. Build Pig Skull Pole mounts it on a stick as a grim marker.
Every adult pig gives one skull when butchered. Slice Animal Head also cuts one out of a pig's head. The Rancher is the best occupation for animal parts. It starts with the most Butchering skill. The Chef and the Fishing Guide also start with some Butchering skill.
Uses
Smash Pig Skull is the main use. A hammer, sledgehammer, club hammer or hammerstone is kept. The recipe needs Strength level 2. One skull gives two Bone Pieces, two Animal Teeth and two Pig Tusk.
The tusks are the prize. Make Pig Tusk Necklace, Make Pig Tusks Necklace and Make Pig Tusk Earrings all use them. A single skull gives half the tusks for the four-tusk necklace.
Build Pig Skull Pole takes one skull, one Long Stick or Sapling and one Sheet Rope. It gives a Pig Skull Pole. No skill is needed.
How to Get Pig Skull
Butchering gives the skull. A Landrace sow or boar gives one, and so does a Large Black sow or boar.
Slice Animal Head cuts a skull out of a pig's head. A dull knife, sharp knife or meat cleaver does the job and is kept.
