New investigations in the area of the old site in the spa gardens of Bad Dürrenberg as well as state-of-the-art excavation methods made it possible to identify the spot where the shaman's grave was discovered in 1934. Under what circumstances was the shaman's grave found and recovered in 1934? What investigations were carried out on site and later in the laboratory on the rediscovered grave? What were the results of these new investigations?
These and other questions are answered by the state archaeologist Harald Meller in this episode of "Archaeology exclusive: new research on the shaman of Bad Dürrenberg".
The grave of the shaman of Bad Dürrenberg is one of the highlights in the permanent exhibition of the State Museum and a world-class find. The deceased was buried about 9,000 years ago with an overabundance of equipment underpinning her status as a shaman. On 4 May 1934, it accidentally resurfaced from the darkness of history. In the film series "Archaeology exclusive: new research on the shaman of Bad Dürrenberg", the tomb and the buried woman will be revealed their last secrets. This is achieved with the help of the state-of-the-art analysis methods and the most recent archaeological and anthropological findings.
