		Anthropology encompasses a number of historical and comparative approaches to human cultural and physical variety, ranging from the study of human evolution and prehistory to the study of cultures as systems of meaningful symbols.
		Anthropology involves, at one extreme, such natural scientific studies as anatomy, ecology, genetics, and geology; at the other, various social sciences and humanities ranging from psychology, sociology, and linguistics to philosophy, history, and comparative religion.
		The courses numbered Anthropology 21100 through 21400 do not presume any previous study of anthropology and may be taken in any order; their contents often vary and, if so, a student may take a course of the same number for a second or third time.

	RACE - The Power of an Illusion . Background Readings \| PBS
		Recent commentaries and letters in Anthropology Newsletter show that many of my biological anthropology colleagues have fallen into the race pit.
		To judge from the discussions at the 1997 AAA presidential panel on race, it is now widely accepted in anthropology that race is a biological myth but that racial discrimination and racism are all too real (C Mukhopadhyay, March 1998, AN, p.
		It has been known for decades that racial typology fails to explain human variation, that is, our species does not fit into a small number of fixed, ideal types.

		The typology (side B), generally is found in sculptures of single heads, that are in semifrontal relief, and flat on the back.
		Also these little elements of the dress must be held in consideration for the study of the physical anthropology and of the culturale anthropology.
		The two-faced anthropomorphic sculpture of Maribo represents a head of bearded man, that seems to me a type presapiens, and he is a male (Fig.4 side A), while the other not bearded head, could be a woman, but it is not sure, and to me it seems a preneanderthalian type (Fig.5 side B).

		This course is an introduction to contemporary linguistic anthropology as an autonomous discipline, with its own research agenda and methods, which include the study of language as a cultural resource and speaking as a cultural practice.
