ANTH 6480 - Human Functional Morphology

Institution:

Tulane University of Louisiana

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

Prof. Holliday. This course covers the functional anatomy of the human body, with emphasis on the structure, function, evolution, and development of the musculo-skeletal and nervous systems. The principle of biological uniformitarianism is used to correlate hard tissue (i.e., teeth and bone) structure with soft tissue function, since soft tissues are only rarely recovered in archaeological or paleontological settings.
