Declarations
:
: Human skeletal remains represent individuals who were once alive, and must be treated with the utmost respect, recognising their dignity and cultural significance. In our work with osteological collections, we are committed to conducting research sensitively and transparently, with scientific integrity, and in full compliance with all applicable ethical and legal standards.The human skeletal remains from Abusir, Egypt, originate from archaeological research conducted from the 1970 s to the present day. These remains are still stored in Egypt and their osteological analysis has been carried out in accordance with all relevant Egyptian laws and regulations.The Giza osteological collection is housed at the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien (NHM Wien) and originates from excavations led by Hermann Junker between 1911 and 1914. We have conducted our study of these remains with the permission of NHM Wien and in accordance with current best practices in the field.We recognise our responsibility to conduct our work in a manner that respects the individuals represented and the cultural contexts from which they came. This involves collaborating with curating institutions, adhering to international standards, and promoting ethical research that meaningfully contributes to our understanding of past populations.
