摘要

开普敦大学(UCT)人类骨骼库始于1913年,一个世纪后,它的组成反映了开普敦大学、南非和国际生物人类学的历史。它由1059具考古骸骨组成(472具;44%),尸体(372;36%)和法医背景(160;14%)。它们用于教育和研究目的,为包括卫生专业人员在内的各种学科的本科生和研究生提供聘任奖学金和体验式学习。尸体遗骸有助于建立针对特定人群的标准,法医案件有助于解决社会和刑事司法问题,考古发现有助于保护非洲文化和遗产。总的来说,存储库为本地和全局的知识提供了独特的贡献。提出了一种新的知识库管理方法。讨论了伦理考虑和管理政策。对这些人的管理面临着一些挑战,有些领域仍然需要关注。UCT致力于通过与相关利益方和受影响方在归还和遣返方面进行接触,解决过去不道德的遗体采购问题。

UCT Human Skeletal Repository: Its stewardship, history, composition and educational use.

The University of Cape Town (UCT) Human Skeletal Repository began in 1913 and its composition a century later reflects the history of biological anthropology at the University, in South Africa and internationally. It consists of 1059 skeletons from archaeological (472; 44%), cadaveric (372; 36%) and forensic contexts (160; 14%). They are used for educational and research purposes to provide engaged scholarship and experiential learning for undergraduate and postgraduate students from a variety of disciplines including health professionals. The cadaveric remains help build population specific standards, forensic cases assist to address social and criminal justice, and the archaeological discoveries to preserve African culture and heritage. Overall, the repository provides a distinct contribution to knowledge locally and globally. The new management approach of the repository is presented. Ethical considerations and management policies are discussed. Stewardship of these individuals is facing several challenges and there are areas that continue to require attention. UCT is committed to address past unethical procurement of remains through engaging with the relevant interested and affected parties in restitution and repatriation.
