Perspectives from Afar

Abstract

The scholarship presented in this volume falls into four distinctive sections with some thematic overlap within chapters: provenance and the history of collections; contemporary pedagogical initiatives; participatory programming; ethical management of collections with a specific focus on restitution and on mummified human remains. This introductory chapter establishes the context for the volume as a whole. It acknowledges the circumstances that shaped Mediterranean archaeology collections in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand; it recognizes the crucial contributions of a small number of scholars; it foreshadows areas of particular interest or concern to museum scholars and collection managers today; and it offers an outline of the chapters that follow.
