SUMMARY:Online- Vortrag in englischer Sprache: Hannah Wilson M.A. Uncoverin
 g Sobibór: Archaeology\, Artefacts and Representation
DESCRIPTION:Hannah Wilson M.A.\nUncovering Sobibór: Archaeology\, Artefact
 s and Representation\nHolocaust archaeology has arguably become one of the
  most crucial aspects within contemporary memory and cultural studies. Thi
 s paper will examine the impact of the archaeological findings at the site
  of Sobibór death camp in Eastern Poland.\n2007\, Polish archaeologist Wo
 jciech Mazurek and Israeli archaeologist Yoram Haimi began working togethe
 r\, picking up where the previous investigations left off. Dutch archaeolo
 gist Ivar Schute also joined after a huge number of items from the Netherl
 ands were uncovered. Consequently\, this ten-year period of excavations ha
 s been shaped by a variety of different actors\, bringing with them the in
 fluences of different supporting organisations and institutions\, and thus
  framed by international memory politics.\nThis paper seeks to outline the
  reasons for the second phase of archaeological excavations and discuss th
 eir impact on the memory and historiography of the site. Collectively\, th
 e unearthing of artefacts at the site has played an important role in the 
 public perception of the camp. Therefore\, the paper will analyse the most
  significant findings\, and the various types of artefacts uncovered there
 . Most important is the small selection of artefacts that give some indica
 tion as to the identity of the victim\, with either a name or other recogn
 isable feature\, and have thus led to the discovery of living family membe
 rs\; specific examples of these will be also present in this paper.\n\nBio
