What The Museum Holds
The Natural History Museum in London holds Cheddar Man’s remains as part of its collection of human osteological material.
The collection is not simply a warehouse of historical curiosities; it is a research resource that has enabled the scientific studies that have produced everything we know about Cheddar Man’s biology.
The museum has custody of the skeleton under the terms of the legal framework governing archaeological human remains in the United Kingdom.
