Encountering evidence of postmortem examinations§- dissection or autopsy in historic skeletal collections is relatively§rare, but recently there has been an increase in the number of reported§instances. And much of what has been evaluated has been largely descriptive§and historical. The Bioarchaeology of§Dissection and Autopsy brings together in a single volume the skeletal evidence of§postmortem examination in the United States from a theoretical perspective. Ranging from the early§colonial period to the early 1900's, from a coffeehouse at Colonial§Williamsburg to a Quaker burial vault in lower Manhattan, the contributions to this volume demonstrate the interpretive significance of a historically and§theoretically contextualized§bioarchaeology. The authors employ a wide range of perspectives, demonstrating how bioarchaeological evidence can be used to address a wide§range of themes including social identity and marginalization, racialization,§the nature of the body and fragmentation, and the emergence of medical practice§and authority in the United States.
