Working with human remains raises a whole host of ethical issues,
from how the remains are used to how and where they are stored.
Over recent years, attitudes towards repatriation and reburial have
changed considerably and there are now laws in many countries to
facilitate or compel the return of remains to claimant communities.
Such changes have also brought about new ways of working with and
caring for human remains, while enabling their ongoing use in
research projects. This has often meant a reevaluation of working
practices for both the curation of remains and in providing access
to them. This volume will look at the issues and difficulties
inherent in holding human remains with global origins, and how
diverse institutions and countries have tackled these issues.
Essential reading for advanced students in biological anthropology,
museum studies, archaeology and anthropology, as well as museum
curators, researchers and other professionals.
