Head

A head or skull is a block modeled after the head of a specific entity.

Variants[edit | edit source]

There are seven types of heads:

Obtaining[edit | edit source]

Mob loot[edit | edit source]

The following heads drops when the corresponding mob gets killed by a charged creeper's explosion:

• Skeleton Skull
• Zombie Head
• Creeper Head
• Piglin Head
• Wither Skeleton Skull

If several mobs are killed by the explosion of a single charged creeper, only one head will drop from the oldest mob of those killed in said explosion.‌^{[Java Edition only]}

A wither skeleton sometimes drops a Wither Skeleton Skull when killed.

Natural generation[edit | edit source]

• Skeleton Skulls generate as part of ancient cities.
• A single Dragon Head generates at the front of end ships.

Player head[edit | edit source]

The Player Head is unobtainable in Survival.

Usage[edit | edit source]

Decoration[edit | edit source]

Heads can be oriented in 16 different directions on top of a block, and 4 directions on the sides of blocks, similar to signs. They can be placed on top of, or beside each other by shift clicking.

When placed and powered by redstone, the piglin and dragon heads play an animation. The piglin head flaps its ears (2 times per second for the right ear and 2.5 times per second for the left ear) while the dragon head opens and closes its mouth repeatedly (2 times per second). The same animation occurs when worn by a (horizontally) moving player, zombie, skeleton, or armor stand (note: the animation does not play if the NoGravity tag is set to 1)

Wearing[edit | edit source]

The player can wear heads, similarly to pumpkins or helmets. This overlays the second layer of the player's skin.

Wearing the corresponding head reduces the detection range for skeletons (but not wither skeletons), creepers, zombies, and piglins to 50% of the normal range. This is similar to (and stacks with) the reductions in detection range from sneaking and from the Invisibility status effect.

In Bedrock Edition, wearing any head makes the player invisible to other players on a locator map.

Dispensers[edit | edit source]

A dispenser can equip a head on a player, mob, or armor stand with an empty helmet slot, within the block the dispenser is facing.

Dispensers can summon a wither when placing wither skeleton skulls on soul sand.

Crafting ingredient[edit | edit source]

Name	Ingredients	Crafting recipe
Creeper Charge Banner Pattern	Paper + Creeper Head
Skull Charge Banner Pattern	Paper + Wither Skeleton Skull
Firework Star	Any Head + Gunpowder + Any Dye

Enchantments[edit | edit source]

Heads can receive the following enchantments, but only through an anvil.

Name	Max level	Method
Curse of Binding	I	Anvil
Curse of Vanishing	I	Anvil

Note blocks[edit | edit source]

Placing a head above a note block causes the note block to play the corresponding mob's ambient sound when activated. The only exception is the creeper head; as creepers don't make ambient sounds, the note block plays the primed (hissing) sound instead.

The block below the note block does not affect the mob sound it creates.

History[edit | edit source]

For a more in-depth breakdown of changes to textures and models, including a set of renders for each state combination, see /Asset history

Java Edition
August 28, 2012							Jeb released images of the skeleton head, hinting of more types to come.
PAX 2012							At PAX, Dinnerbone revealed that there would be rare drops of these mobs.[1]
1.4.2			12w36a				Added skeleton, wither skeleton, zombie, player, and creeper heads.
							Wither skeleton skulls are rarely dropped by the wither skeleton upon death (2.5% chance), while the other four are obtainable only from the creative inventory.
			12w37a				Changed item textures.
							Added as a hidden and disabled feature, player heads can now have the skin of a specific player. A line in the language file implies that there either used to be, or in a future update, the possibility of obtaining a specific player's head.[2]
							Player heads do not drop in vanilla, but mapmakers/modders/etc. can make them by adding an NBT string tag {"SkullOwner":"player_name"} on the skull items.[3]
November 7, 2012							Jeb states that the official opinion is that "[dropping] player heads [on player kills] are a bit too gory for Minecraft, so it's better suited for a plugin or mod."

							Creeper heads and wither skeleton skulls are now used in crafting specific banner patterns.

Skull "item"[edit | edit source]

The following content is transcluded from Technical blocks/Skull.

Java Edition
1.4.2			12w36a				Heads have an extra, unobtainable item form corresponding to its block ID. It can be obtained via the /give command or inventory editors with numeric item ID 144.
							Unlike the proper head items at the time, it had a placement sound, and was capable of directly replacing replaceable blocks. (The proper head items could only replace them indirectly, i.e. they could be placed against the side of a block which would result in it replacing snow, however could not replace snow if the snow itself was targeted.)
							The head item, if placed by a player facing north, east, south or west would result in the placement of a skull block with metadata 0, 1, 2 and 3, which were, in order, an east-facing skull visually wall attached but with a floor hitbox, a north-facing floor skull, a north-facing wall skull and a south-facing wall skull.
1.7.2			13w37a				The direct item form of heads has been removed from the game. It can no longer exist as an item in any way, only as a placed block.
Pocket Edition Alpha
v0.12.1			build 1				Skulls exist as an item.
							When a mob head is mined using a tool enchanted with Silk Touch, it drops both its regular item form and the skull block item.
							The block item places creeper heads that have no collision box and are attached to the side of the block where the head faces away from the player. When the player is facing north, the placed creeper head faces east-northeast instead of north, which is a normally unobtainable block state/NBT combination. Block placement only succeeds if there is a block below where the creeper head is being placed.
			build 10				The skull block item now places invisible mob heads instead of creeper heads. Both newly placed heads and previously placed creeper heads now have a collision box.
v0.13.0			build 1				Skull block items no longer drop from mob heads mined with a Silk Touch tool.

Appearances[edit | edit source]

Java Edition
1.4.2			12w36a				The skull item uses this texture in inventories, when held in first or third person view, as a dropped item or when in an item frame.
1.5			13w02a				Due to major texture storage changes in this version, the skull item no longer has a valid item texture, making it cause a game crash when held in first or third person view, as a dropped item or when in an item frame.
			13w02b				The skull item now uses this texture in inventories, when held in first or third person view, as a dropped item or when in an item frame.
Pocket Edition Alpha
v0.12.1			build 1				The skull item uses this texture in inventories, when held in first or third person view, or as a dropped item.
Bedrock Edition
1.10.0			beta 1.10.0.3				Skull items now use this model.

Names[edit | edit source]

Java Edition

• 12w36a - 13w25b: [Has no defined name, rendering a minimum-length text box if highlighted]
• 13w25c - 14w21b: tile.skull.name

When given using the /give command, it is announced as tile.skull.name.

Bedrock Edition

• v0.12.1 alpha build 1 - v0.16.0 alpha build 3: skull
• v0.16.0 alpha build 4 - ?: Skeleton Skull

Trivia[edit | edit source]

• Heads do not have their own textures and take their textures from other objects.
• When breaking any head, the particle effect of breaking it is the same as soul sand.
• Despite there being a default Steve head, heads for the other protagonist skins cannot be obtained without using custom names.
• In Bedrock Edition, the skull variant for the item is stored under the damage component, normally used for items with durability.
