ABSTRACT

The intense media coverage surrounding the rediscovery of 'Ned's Head', a skull allegedly belonging to Australia's most notorious nineteenth-century bushranger Edward Kelly, as well as the recent unearthing of late fifteenth-century skeletal remains of Richard III in a car park in Leicester (UK), demonstrates the public's ongoing fascination with history and forensic science. Each of these cold cases centres on an iconic figure clothed in historical notoriety that inhabits a space in the public imagination where historical myth and reality are often blurred.

This lecture looks at Ned Kelly's cold case, and locates his skeletal remains within the broader context of nineteenth-century medical practices of dissection, medical collecting, and the law.
