Yes, I know about references to the four corners, and to the sun rising and setting, none of which mean any more than I do when I use those phrases. If I say sunrise is at 6:28 am, that does not mean I am a flat earther. If I talk about visiting the four corners of the globe, it does not mean I am a flat earther. Jesus said He is the vine and we are the branches. That doesn’t mean Jesus is made of wood. You really need to read the whole Bible and be honest about it.

Today is Thursday, and that doesn’t mean I believe in the god Thor, either.

I think those skull represent various species, some of which may be extinct, and some of which may be primates with some sort of birth defect or abnormality or what have you. Just as in human beings, for instance, if we have dwarfism, the head is disproportionately large. The dwarf is not a missing link.

So, as I understand the above, the words in the Bible mean no more than the words we speak similar phrases? Does this apply to all the phrases in the Bible?

I agree 100%. Now if we can come to an understanding about the rest of the bible being symbolic and full of metaphors, we'll be getting somewhere.

This is indeed interesting. I urge you to do some research into what evidences lie behind these skulls. I think you are insulting the research that has gone into these findings. They are certainly all "extinct." However, if you wish to pursue your ideas, there is some major grant money and possible awards in your future.
