  • ANT 201: Physical Anthropology

    3.00 Credits
    University of Maine at Machias

    Physical Anthropology is the study of humanity from a biological and evolutionary perspective. We are interested in anthropological questions -- how do we explain human behavior -- by thinking about people as just another member of the Animal Kingdom. This approach leads to new insights on what makes people so unique, and what makes them similar to non-human animals. In this course, we will explore: evolutionary theory, basic genetics, primates, fossil humans, forensic anthropology, and modern human variation. With each topic, we will also consider related current events and issues. Current issues include: cloning, genetically-modified foods, and genetic screening for pregnant women; habitat conservation; identification of crime victims, including the 9/11 tragedy; and IQ testing and measuring of intelligence. As part of the course, students will also conduct several informal experiments, guided by the instructor, dealing with observations of humans and animals. 4 Cr
