I've just been doing some more research on Venus Hottentot.There was more than one, two, maybe more, that were displayed in Europe. Makes you wonder why we only hear about the one. Also, only after Gould wrote The Hottentot Venus in the '80s did anyone really care to search for her stored remains. It seems like once the "story" of it all disappeared for a little while. I hadn't heard about it at all before class, that's why I'm enjoying class so much-I'm learning about things I would've had NO idea about before. There is a pretty cool song called Hottentot by Saycon. The video is a little irrelevant but if you listen to the lyrics it's a pretty cool concept based on what we've learned and read. Take a few to listen and enjoy, I'm posting it on a separate blog entry because I can't figure out how to just embed it on this one!
