Because many anthropological collections were established during the 19th and early 20th centuries, attempts to trace their origins can become a research topic with its own history. Join the U-M Department of Anthropology and guests from the Hungarian National Museum for a collaborative presentation on how researchers from multiple countries can support each other’s work to identify the provenience of human remains collections with respect and expertise. These collaborators will explain how their research traced the origins of human remains in U-M Anthropology’s collection, establishing connections to the work of Austrian anthropologist Felix von Luschan (1854–1924) and early-1900s Hungarian antiquities dealer József Lichtneckert.
