Revealing the hidden graves of the Holocaust

Groundbreaking research to be published in Journal of Conflict Archaeology

In the first survey of the WWII Treblinka death camp in Poland that used tools to see below the ground's surface, forensic archaeologist Caroline Sturdy Colls found a number of pits that confirm the existence of mass graves at the site...

"Some may be the result of post-war looting, prompted by myths of buried Jewish gold, but several larger pits were recorded in areas suggested by witnesses as the locations of mass graves and cremation sites..."

The findings of the survey are to be published in Volume 7 (2012) Issue 2 of the Journal of Conflict Archaeology. Read an article on this significant discovery in the BBC News Magazine.

REVIEW: The Historic Environment in Context

The Historic Environment: Policy & Practice has been reviewed in Context, the magazine of the Institute for Historic Building Conservation (IHBC) and is described as "essential reading for heritage professionals". The review welcomes the journal's "interdisciplinary overlap" and gives special attention to a number articles from the first three issues of the journal including 'Characterization in an Urban Setting: The Experience of the Black Country' by Paul Quigley and Michael Shaw, which the review notes as an "interesting and detailed overview of urban characterisation".

Members of the IHBC can subscribe to The Historic Environment at a 20% discount!

"Back in September 2009, your reviewer had occasion to remark about a disappointing trend of a dumbing-down of content by some heritage publications, presumably to provide more bite-sized, information-lite material for a more general readership..."
