Dear Colleagues,
    I have learned that our colleague, Sabine Deschler-Erb, has died after a long illness. Sabine was a full and very active professor in the Department of Ancient Civilizations at the University of Basel in Switzerland. She worked in a number of research areas as a zooarchaeologist, focused on Roman Studies,  notably including Roman worked bone. Until several years ago, Sabine was a long-time editor at Instrumentum, a journal dealing with ancient technology and particularly worked bone. For her PhD she studied bone tool manufacturing from Roman Augusta Raurica and produced a two volume,seminal study of these several thousands of objects.
      Most of all, she was a hard-working, kind person with a very positive outlook on life. It is very difficult for me to imagine the laboratory at the University of Basel without her. Her death is a personal loss and a loss for scholarly work on the European part of the Roman Empire.
