ANTH 206 - Forensic Anthropology
An introduction to the field of forensic anthropology. Forensic anthropologists solve problems related to cause of death and help establish personal identity from human skeletal remains and other evidence, especially in cases of medical and legal importance. Students learn about the relevant techniques and theories from archaeology, biological anthropology, skeletal biology, and related disciplines. Cases covered may include the historical and/or ancient (for example, sacrificial death in ancient Peru) and the contemporary (for example, the excavation of mass graves and other evidence of human rights violations).
