For those of you who don't know, Anthropology is the study of humans. There are four subdivisions of Anthropology. They are Linguistic Anthropology, Cultural Anthropology, Biological Anthropology, and Archeaology.
Linguistic Anthropology is the study of the way humans use language and sounds. It pertains also to cultural differences in the category of languages. Biological Anthropology is the study of human evolution and variation today and in the past. This requires knowledge of genetics and biology. Also included in this field is primatology and genetics. Cultural Anthropology is the study of contemporary human cultures. This requires field work where an anthropologist will observe a cultural group. Also included in this field are ethnobotany and ethnozoology. Archeaology Is the study of past human cultures through their remains. This includes excavating ruins and graves as well as comparison to modern day peoples. These four different categories can be remember by using this phrase "Words,bones, people, and stones".

    My favorite field of Anthropology is Archeaology. Anyone interested in the Anthropology Department at UC Davis can take one of the two UC Davis links at the bottom of the page. And hey, I would LOVE an internship. If you want to give me one, you can e-mail me at iiullah@ucdavis.edu.
