There are several jars uploaded in source control, usually residing in lib/. However, it seems that this project is relying on maven to install its dependencies. A quick google showed that these files (as referenced in build.properties) are used in Ant. However, I can't find any mention of Ant in the current project. Are these files artifacts of an older dependency mechanism and can they be removed?

The jars are referenced through the plug-in infrastructure of Eclipse/IntelliJ, which read the build.properties. Back in the day, tycho (which builds the Eclipse OSGI plug-in) wasn't compatible with dependency resolution via maven (because OSGI bundles have a dependency resolution of their own). Might be interesting to see whether this has changed in the meantime ...
