Cephalomancy - Definition

Cephalomancy is a form of divination using a goat or donkey's head. Cephalomancy technically means "head divination" and therefore applies to any sort of divination using a skull or head.

Urquhardt wrote in 1693 that cephalomancy was "often practised amongst the High Germans in their boiling of an Asses Head upon burning Coals."
