Thanks to all for your comments. I had a feeling (and hoped) that the topic would stimulate some varied commentary and I'm grateful to you all for your viewpoints. As an osteo without a huge amount of field experience (particularly one that had some dealing with Native American archaeology), I personally tend to err on the side of the overly cautious when dealing with the excavation and curation of human remains. But I can certainly understand the necessity of methodology used at cases such as at Spitalfields. I'm glad that we had archies and osteos with varying viewpoints weighing in on the debate. Fascinating stuff!
