ANTH 203 - Human Origins
An exploration of the archaeological and biological evidence for the origin and evolution of humans. The story of human origins is constantly evolving with recent developments in DNA analysis and archaeological finds. Students learn about the spread of Homo sapiens across the continents from Africa, as well as our relationship to other early humans, including those that exist still in our DNA - such as the Neanderthals. In addition, students address the question of whether human races really exist. The course introduces students to paleoanthropology.
