Lonstanding members of the list may care to know that the list has been
expanded recently: several new members have joined. Welcome to them.
As the list has not been a very active list I hope they will stay to be
on hand when there is some discussion going or help needed.
***************************
As those who attended the Glasgow conference may know, I am writing a
piece on the stealing body parts case. One of the claims made by the
Royal College of Surgeons' witnesses and Inspector of Anatomy was that
the Royal College was a burial ground. I have recently been told that
some other museums containing anatomical specimens (a) are or are
regarded as or are believed to be burial grounds and (b) have been
consecrated to that end.
Can anyone tell me of any particular museums of which this is true? I
would like to hear of museums both consecrated and unconsecrated.
