Assessing Violence in a Museum Collection of Human Remains
This study explores how violence has influenced the acquisition of human remains for museum collections. A total of n =365 individuals with detailed documentation curated at the Department of Anthropology, Natural History Museum Vienna (DA-NHMW) are analysed to detect and utilize specific patterns, also with the aim to make predictions about the context of violence they were acquired from. This is done by comparing historical records with skeleta…
Locating physical anthropology and human remains’ agency: A case study from the early Austro-Hungarian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina
Postcolonial studies have extensively examined how colonial networks have shaped the past and present societal structures. While much attention has been given to European powers’ exploitation of overseas territories, this article contributes to the ongoing discussion of colonial entanglements within European settings by analysing Austria-Hungary’s occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (1878–1918). This study investigates how Bosnia and Herzegovina…
Using Content and Bibliometric Network Analysis to Understand the Development and Study of "Violence" in Bioarchaeology
Violence is an interdisciplinary concept subjected to the fluctuations of social and personal perceptions of morality, ethics, and justice. While its definition therefore proves to be elusive, it may serve as a way to research and reconstruct human behavior. This also applies to bioarchaeology, which is dedicated to the study of past societies through the analysis of human remains. The aim of this article is to analyze the general development, me…
Social and genetic diversity in first farmers of central Europe
The Linearbandkeramik (LBK) Neolithic communities were the first to spread farming across large parts of Europe. We report genome-wide data for 250 individuals: 178 individuals from whole-cemetery surveys of the Alföld Linearbankeramik Culture eastern LBK site of Polgár-Ferenci-hát, the western LBK site of Nitra Horné Krškany and the western LBK settlement and massacre site of Asparn-Schletz, as well as 48 LBK individuals from 16 other sites and …
Osteobiographical re-individualisation of the Selk'nam human remains at the Natural History Museum Vienna
Osteological collections are key sources of information in providing crucial insight into the lifestyles of past populations. In this article, we conduct an osteobiographical assessment of the human remains of fourteen Selk'nam individuals, which are now housed in the Department of Anthropology, Natural History Museum Vienna, Austria. The aim is to bring these individuals closer to their communities of origin by using non-invasive methods aimed a…
Re-telling the story of Selk'nam ancestors: From Karokynká/Tierra del Fuego to Austria
Museums are places characterised by collecting objects, displaying them for public education and also subjecting their collections to research. Yet knowledge can not only be created by using the collection for research. The history of a collection can also be reconstructed, albeit mostly in a fragmentary way. This is important when there is evidence that the collection was acquired in a colonial context, when the collection contains human remains…
