Dakar, Senegal, is a town often described as ‘a wretched hive of scum and villainy’, both in the present and in Jacob’s time.
By the way, drawing the underside of a skull is a lot harder than drawing the face of it. You artists out there may want to practice it, in case you need to show a character pointing at a foramen magnum someday.

Jacob: The canines and eyesockets are enlarged. And the foramen magnum is huge. This creature had a lobe of grey matter that went all the way down its spine, giving it phenomenal agility and reflexes. These are children from the Ugandan deviancy. I wiped them out in 2037. Someone's been digging up mass graves. Captain, who gave you this package?
Captain T: A shipper in Dakar. I don't know who he was working for.
Girii: What are you going to do with them?
Jacob: Captain, help me carry that up. Let's get this trash off your ship. You two -- stay out of my sight for an hour.
Roger: Is he going to toss them overboard?
Girii: Not sure. I'll find out.
Roger: Girii -- wait.

And here I thought that faux-advertisement of Jacob golfing with skulls was an unrelated side piece. 😀 Nice forethought!
My thoughts exactly, Dave.
Yeah, but now I feel bad for showing spoilers. Not sure if I want to do more ads based on future happenings. Of course, all the really crazy stuff is in the future…
There is still the ‘surprise’ of why he’s getting rid of the skulls this way. Is it just to let off some steam? …Or is it important that they all can’t be dredged up at once? Perhaps he’s making a breadcrumb trail for someone.
I know I’m gonna laugh when he stats playing golf with the head of the children he killed. I’m a horrible person.
