Body Histories

Check out this beautiful video slide-show for the Assembling Bodies exhibition at the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology in Cambridge (I'm not entirely sure how to insert a video; I suppose I could find out, but that would take effort). It looks fantastic.

The exhibition is part of a huge Leverhulme project on 'Changing Beliefs in the Human Body', which is finally coming to a close. It brings together researchers in a number of disciplines and periods to investigate the human body in time.

As something of a last hurrah before the participants put the finishing touches on their learned monographs, there's a big conference on 'Body Histories' in Cambridge this weekend.
