About this Item
Record Details
- Note
- Human remains are entitled to a high level of dignity and respect, and their stewardship at the Kelsey follows two guiding principles: respect for the person and the integrity of their remains, and respect for the current and future research potential of the remains. Out of respect the Kelsey Museum has decided to not post images of human remains online. Inquiries can be directed to the Kelsey Museum Registry Department (kelsey.registry@umich.edu). For more information, you can view our Human Remains Policy.
