ANTH 321: World Archaeology
3.00 Credits
University of Hawaii-West Oahu
This course examines the origins of agriculture and domestication of animals, the origins of urbanism, and the rise of civilizations throughout the world. It begins with discussions of general principles and theories in archaeology; site dating; excavation and survey; artifact analysis; faunal analysis; and paleobotany. These are used to examine agriculture and animal husbandry in the Upper Paleolithic, beginning ca. 25,000 years ago, in the ancient Middle East, Asia, and North and South America. Theories about origins of urbanism and the rise of civilizations are also considered, with case studies drawn from the prime areas of Southwest Asia, East Asia, South Asia, Egypt, Mesoamerica, South America and, possibly, prehistoric North America. The course will also feature a "virtual dig" of a Paleolithic site.(DH)

ANTH 358: Myth,Symbol,and Ritual

Myths play an important role in a people's understanding of the world and their place in it. Rituals are used to bring persons into contact with the realm of the sacred.

When experienced by those who believe in them, rituals can cure sickness, cause death, secure salvation and life everlasting, bring ancestors to life, and transform weak boys and lazy girls into strong and productive men and women. Myths and rituals derive their power from symbols - objects, actions, words, and relationships that convey meaning. This course looks at the power of symbols, rituals, and myths.
