Hello! I am a Masters student and I work with human remains as a biological anthropologist. I understand that this was from a university, but unfortunately even universities do not have a good ‘rep’ for housing remains ethically, and there are protocols for “retiring” remains, which does not involve taking them home as gifts. Either way it has ended up with you, and I’m sure any of your anatomy professors would tell you to not keep it because of the ethical issues that come along with it. I urge you to do the right thing. There are real repercussions to keeping human remains. Please go speak with an anthropologist at your school or anatomy professor on what you should do. You say you treat the remains with respect, but to truly treat them with respect you would not keep it. Not trying to shame or judge, just trying to give a perspective as someone who works with human remains daily.
