DM Osteology is particularly interested in working with community archaeology groups and museums with archaeological collections across the country. I offer very competitive rates to suit limited budgets.

I am able to advise on:

​

• Current legislation regarding human remains.

• Applications for exhumation licenses.

• Best practice on the treatment of human remains.

• On site advice on excavation and recording techniques.

• Advice on suitable packing materials, labelling and recording.

• Cleaning and storage of human remains.

• Advice on use of specialist services, such as carbon dating, stable isotope
  analysis, DNA.
   

I offer:

​

• Digital recording of burials and excavated human remains

• Post excavation osteological reports.

• Basic osteology training for community and museum volunteers.

• Presentations to museum and community groups on excavation and post excavation analysis.

 

I ensure that all work carried out to standards defined by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists and the British Association of Biological Anthropology and Osteoarchaeology codes of practice and ethics.
