Description

Archaeological Exhumation Tools Set

The Archaeological Exhumation Tools Set  provides a practical selection of fine hand tools for the careful excavation and recovery of fragile human remains, archaeological material and associated evidence.

Designed for controlled excavation work, the tool roll includes fine picks, brushes and other suitable hand tools that allow the examiner to work gradually around delicate material. As a result, investigators can remove soil and debris with greater control while reducing the risk of damaging fragile remains or artefacts.

Archaeological Exhumation Tools Set for Detailed Excavation

Careful excavation often requires much smaller and more precise tools than those used during the initial removal of soil.

Fine picks allow the examiner to work around bones, teeth, small artefacts and other delicate material. Meanwhile, soft brushes help remove loose soil from exposed surfaces without applying excessive force.

This makes the kit particularly useful once an excavation reaches the more detailed stages of recovery.

Suitable for Forensic and Archaeological Work

The tool roll can support a wide range of excavation activities, including:

• Forensic exhumation
• Archaeological excavation
• Human remains recovery
• Disaster victim recovery
• Crime scene examination
• Burial-site investigation
• Recovery of fragile artefacts
• Detailed excavation around skeletal material

Because the tools provide greater control than larger excavation equipment, they are particularly useful when working close to fragile evidence.

Fine Picks and Brushes

The kit includes a selection of fine picks and brushes suitable for precision work.

Brushes such as small paintbrushes or toothbrush-style brushes allow users to remove loose material gradually. In addition, fine picks can assist with controlled excavation around compacted soil and small objects.

Using the appropriate tool for each stage helps the examiner expose material carefully while preserving its position and condition.

Portable Tool Roll

The tools store inside a convenient roll, helping keep the equipment organised during transportation and use.

The roll also allows practitioners to quickly identify and select the tool they require. Once the examination is complete, the equipment can be returned to the roll for compact storage.

This makes the kit suitable for field deployment, forensic vehicles, archaeological teams and specialist recovery equipment.

Controlled Recovery of Fragile Evidence

Excavation around skeletal remains and delicate artefacts requires patience and careful control.

The Archaeological Exhumation Tools Set  provides the smaller hand tools required for this detailed work. Therefore, it complements larger excavation equipment such as trowels, spades and shovels used during the earlier stages of an excavation.

Practitioners should clean and maintain the tools in accordance with their organisation’s procedures, particularly where contamination control forms part of the examination.
