"THE ORGANIZATION OF SCIENCE AND EDUCATION IS WRONG." RUZANNA MKRTCHYAN
July 17 2013
"We need to review the human remains kept in YSU. Inside this limit,
we hold seminars, we think about how to better preserve the heritage
of Armenia, human remains collections, as well as plants, animals and
stones,- told Associate Professor of Tulsa University of Anthropology
Miriam Belmaker in an interview with Aravot.am about "The Present and
the Future of Bioarchaeological, Archaeological and Paleontological
Collections at Yerevan State University". According to her, working
with the Ministry of Culture, Institute of Archeology and Department
of Geology of the State University, they are teaching students new
methods of how to keep the fossils and the collections. "The most
important goal is to establish an informational framework, due to which
these unresolved issues will be maintained and reviewed. This is a
part of the heritage of Armenia, the loss will be of universal." In
the interview with us, the lecturer of YSU Department of History, a
senior researcher at the RA NAS Institute of Archeology and Ethnography
Ruzanna Lazarian informed that they have worked about 3 weeks with
the American partners in the field of scientific community.
"We would like to maintain, fund, replenish and bring to the condition
of museum the osteologic pieces, which actually is not conducted
in Armenia. Bioarchaeological material has value and contains great
scientific information. The organization of science and education is
wrong; we are not attracting young fellow researchers and students
in these interesting works. Such meetings are given much importance
and well treated at the Institute of Archaeology, but being an
anthropologist, I believe, that, today, the osteologic pieces are
not treated well." Angela SHAHUMYAN
