Why did he leap from the roof of his hotel? Slrubenstein | Talk 13:33, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

He had cancer, but who knows what really triggered it off. My source for this is the best essay on Laufer I could find online,

Bennet Bronson's chapter on Berthold Laufer, in: Fieldiana Anthropology, New Series, Nr. 36, under the title Curators, Collectors, and Contexts. Anthropology at the Field Museum, 1893-2002 (Publication 1525) volume.

Its online somewhere (at the Internet Archive?)--Radh (talk) 12:27, 26 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
