This edited volume contains valuable information for museums and
academic institutions concerning the care and conservation of human
remains. The editors provide all the essential information required
concerning the curation of human remains, from oft posed ethical
questions to storage and transport issues. Jam-packed with
references, this collection is up to date and is a must have
resource. This volume should be required reading for institutions
with osteology collections, as well as scholars and students. With
a foreword by Brian Fagan.
X-radiography of textile objects reveals hidden features as well as
unexpected components and materials. This non-destructive technique
throws light on construction, manufacturing techniques, use, wear,
repair, patterns of decay and dating. X-radiography improves
artefact documentation and interpretation as well as guiding
conservation approaches by enhancing understanding. This book
explores techniques for X-raying textiles. It describes approaches
to image interpretation and explains how, through digitisation and
digital image manipulation, maximum information can be realised.
Case studies include archaeological, ecclesiastical and
ethnographic textiles, items of dress and accessories, upholstery,
quilts, embroideries, dolls and toys. Museum professionals will
find this stimulating book an essential guide for developing their
own practice or commissioning textile X-radiographs.
