HOW DID VICTORIA’S FORENSIC EXPERTS AND ARCHAEOLOGISTS IDENTIFY NED KELLY’S REMAINS?
Come along to the Heritage Trust’s Heritage Festival and hear experts from the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine and Heritage Victoria explain this historically significant investigation into the story of Ned Kelly’s remains from the moment he was executed at the Old Melbourne Gaol in 1880.
Hear from the team who successfully identified Ned Kelly’s skeletal remains exhumed in 1929 from Pentridge Prison and why questions remained about the “Ned Kelly” skull that was stolen from the Old Melbourne Gaol Museum in 1978.
If the skull isn’t Ned Kelly’s, whose is it?
