Casts From Other Sources
As the reputation of the Physical Anthropology’s casting lab grew, opportunities arose to obtain casts that we did not have in our collection through trade - by exchanging our casts with those made by researchers from other institutions. In this way we were able to obtain casts of fossil hominids from sites around the world.
Some of the sites in this category include:
Rudabanya
Omo
Laetoli
Pasalar
Ohalo II
Tabun
Quafzeh
Kebara
Maba
In other cases, where there were established casting programs in place, we purchased the casts outright.
