Designed for ages 10 ans up
The discovery of human bones raises all sorts of questions :
- Who did they belong to?
- How did the person die?
- What was their life like?
In the field and in the lab, bioarchaeologists help solve archaeological and forensic investigations. By analyzing human remains and other clues found at excavation sites and crime scenes, these scientists can piece together past events.
This interactive exhibition shines a light on the vital scientific role that bioarchaeology, funerary archaeology, and forensic anthropology play in investigations that sometimes reveal crimes committed hundreds of years ago.
The exhibition invites you to become a bioarchaeologist for the day. Take measurements, use tools, examine artifacts under a microscope, analyze bone reproductions, and even solve your own investigation. You’ll also learn more about the social impact of this work, from commemorating tragic events to advancing important causes.
