scientif ways of analysing the past (like the Eulau graves) also hold great pitfalls for interpretations: blood relationship does not necesarrily make a nuclar family in a modern sense. We have to be aware of our (unconscious) biases and perceptions #s424 #eaa2020virtual

Milka Berndt discussing: what is "family"? Can our view of "family" be transfered to the past? #s424 #eaa2020virtual

graves from Eulau, Saxony-Anhalt: The oldest nuclear family know so far? they are displayed that way in the museum #s424 #eaa2020virtual

so, how can dioramas be used as proper didactic instruments? scientific basis/literatur and how diorama was created should be made transparent to museums visitors #s424 #eaa2020virtual

- advantages of dioramas: they are self-explanatory, and allow an emotional approach
- disadvantages of dioramas: they reflect the way nature and culture are percieved by the contemporary society
#s424 #eaa2020virtual

Always problematic: in prehistory, not every detail of life is known, but in images like dioramas details have to be shown #s424 #eaa2020virtual

Between art and science: Sophie Heisig is exploring the diorama as mediator of life images #s424 #eaa2020virtual
