Il trattamento sensibile e rispettoso dei resti umani è della massima importanza per il Progetto Ancestors. Seguiamo le linee guida etiche degli organismi professionali britannici, italiani ed europei, tenendo conto delle esigenze di tutti i gruppi di stakeholder. Tutti i metodi e le tecniche di campionamento distruttivo sono considerati criticamente per bilanciare la produzione di nuove conoscenze sulle vite passate, con la necessità di preservare le collezioni scheletriche in riconoscimento del fatto che sono un record unico e limitato. Ci impegniamo per la pubblicazione Open Access e i principi dei dati FAIR.
