HUMAN REMAINS FROM THE FORMER GERMAN COLONY OF ...

More than 1100 Human Remains from the former German colony in East Africa exist in the
anthropological collection of the Museum of Prehistory and Early History in Berlin. Mainly
without any information about who these individuals were  how they died and in which manner
they got dislocated  a collaboration of researchers of the University of Rwanda  the National
Museums of Rwanda and the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz approached these questions. The
research begins with the broader context of colonialism and its local impact to single cases of
Human Remains appropriation. Using historical sources  anthropological examinations and
comtemporary accounts the origin of the Human Remains were not only recontextualized but
interviews conducted in the affected communities also revealed why these human remains should
be returned and the variying ways of treatment they should receive thereafter.
