A reminder that our final seminar of the year will be presented by Dr. Rosi Crane, a newly minted Associate Member of the Centre. She will speak about the prehistory of Otago Museum’s zoological collections, which were acquired before the First World War but have precious little documentation associated with them. Drawing upon the specimens themselves, labels and photographs, this presentation will consider how we can use these sources to make sense of the scientific approaches to curating in nineteenth century Dunedin.
Please join us at 3.30 on Friday 27 October in the Hocken Seminar Room (90 Anzac Avenue) to hear what promises to be a great talk.
