To: US Museums with Swiss Neolithic Lake Dwelling Collections
From: Bettina Arnold, Dept. of Anthropology, University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee
Re: Material from the Swiss Neolithic Lake Dwelling Site of Robenhausen
Date: July 2004
We are currently gathering information about US museums with Swiss Neolithic
Lake Dwelling material, specifically from the site of Robenhausen, which was
excavated in the late 19th/early 20th century. A large number of museums
around
the world purchased material from this site, which yielded large quantities
of
well-preserved textiles, fruit, grain, and other organic material. Key words
to
search for include the following:
Robenhausen
Wetzikon
Pfäffikon
Pfäffikersee
Jakob Messikommer
Ferdinand Keller
US museums that we know have Robenhausen collections include:
Smithsonian Institution
Chicago Field Museum
Milwaukee Public Museum
Peabody Museum (Harvard)
If your institution has Robenhausen material, we would very much appreciate
it
if you could contact us at [log in to unmask]
Thank you.
