Anthropology 250S: The Ethnography and Archaeology of Hunter-Gatherers
3.00 Credits
Hamilton College
Humans lived as hunter-gatherers for 99% of our evolutionary past. Today, just a small fraction of the world's population lives as hunter-gatherers and that number is rapidly decreasing due to modernization. Anthropologists and archaeologists are interested in studying the adaptive range of modern hunter-gatherers in order to help interpret the archaeological record. Course explores the ethnographic and archaeological study of hunting and gathering with a focus on analogy and inference developed in ethnoarchaeology and behavioral ecology. Prerequisite, 106 or consent of instructor. Goodale.

Anthropology 311F: Youth and Cultural Reproduction
3.00 Credits
Hamilton College
The notion of youth as a lifespan period has grown in salience and pervasiveness in the world. This course explores three major aspects of social scientists' attention to youth: as a category to probe intersections among culture, aesthetics, and class in post-industrial societies; as a means for imagining the relationship between colonial and post-colonial forms of governance; and as a means for tracing the flows of capital among nation-states. Youth thus provides us with a window into pressing concerns in late-twentieth and early-twenty-first century social science. Prerequisite, 100-level anthropology course or consent of instructor. (Same as Education Studies 311.) LaDousa.
