2. ANTHROPOLOGY
ANTHROPOLOGY is the
scientific study of the
origins of humans, how we
have changed over the
years, and how we relate
to each other, both within
our own culture and with
people from other cultures.
Anthropology is Arts
and Science.
The term originates
from two words in
Greek: • Anthropos
meaning “man” as in
“human being” • logos
meaning “study”.An architect uses anthropology to understand how architecture
influences peoples, how it makes people, how it shapes them
and how it sustains social relations between people

3. IMPORTANCE OF ANTHROPOLOGY
Anthropologists explore
human evolution, reconstruct
societies and civilizations of
the past, and analyze the
cultures and languages of
modern peoples. ... In
the anthropology major,
students learn about human
difference in all its biological,
historical, cultural and
linguistic complications
EVOLUTIONARY THEORY The theory of evolution by
natural selection, first formulated in Darwin's book "On the
Origin of Species" in 1859, is the process by which
organisms change over time as a result of changes in
heritable physical or behavioral traits. Changes that allow
an organism to better adapt to its environment will help it
survive and have more offspring.
Charles Robert Darwin, FRS FRGS FLS FZS was an
English naturalist and geologist, best known for his
contributions to the science of evolution Beginnings of
