Anthropology is the study of human societies and cultures, both past and present. It includes the study of human origins, cultural diversity, and social change. Anthropologists use various techniques to investigate human communities throughout history. There are four main fields of anthropology: cultural anthropology studies living human cultures; linguistic anthropology examines language and culture; archaeology studies human remains and artifacts to understand the past; and biological anthropology focuses on human evolution, variability, and adaptations using an evolutionary perspective. The overall goal of anthropology is to develop a holistic understanding of what it means to be human through understanding the interplay between human biology, language, and culture.

2. Anthropology
Anthropology is the study of
the origin and development
of human societies and
cultures. Culture is the
learned behavior of people,
including their languages,
belief systems, social
structures, institutions, and
material goods.

3. Anthropology
Anthropologists study the
characteristics of past and
present human
communities through a
variety of techniques. In
doing so, they investigate
and describe how different
peoples of our world lived
throughout history.

4. Anthropology
It include topic such as
human origin,
globalization, social
change, and world
history
It is the study of
humankind in all
times and all place
It is the study of the
origin and development of
human societies and
cultures
It it the study of
humanity including our
prehistoric origin and
contemporary human
diversity

5. Goals of Anthropology
The goal of anthropology is to pursue a holistic
understanding of what it means to be human
by understanding the relationship between
human biology, language, and culture.
Produce new knowledge and new theories
about humankind and human behavior

Anthropology

7. Cultural Anthropology
Refers to the study of living people and their cultures including
variation and change. It deals with the description and analysis
of the form and styles and the social lives of past and present
ages.
study how people who share a common cultural system
organize and shape the physical and social world around them,
and are in turn shaped by those ideas, behaviors, and physical
environments.
Cultural anthropologists also study art, religion, migration,
mirriage, and family.

8. Linguistic anthropology
studies the nature of human languages in the context of
those cultures that developed them. Scholars in the field
seek to understand the social and cultural foundations
of language itself, while exploring how social and cultural
formations are grounded in linguistic practices.
Linguistic anthropologists study the ways in which
people negotiate, contest, and reproduce cultural forms
and social relations through language. They examine the
ways in which language provides insights into the nature
and evolution of culture and human society

9. Archeology
Archaeology is the study of the human past using material
remains. These remains can be any objects that people
created, modified, or used. Portable remains are usually
called artifacts. Artifacts include tools, clothing, and
decorations. Non-portable remains, such as pyramids or
post-holes, are called features.

10. Biological Anthropology
deals with the evolution of humans, their variability, and
adaptations to environmental stresses. Using an evolutionary
perspective, we examine not only the physical form of humans
- the bones, muscles, and organs - but also how it functions to
allow survival and reproduction.
Within the field of biological anthropology there are many
different areas of focus. Paleoanthropology studies the
evolution of primates and hominids from the fossil record and
from what can be determined through comparative anatomy
and studies of social structure and behavior from our closest
living relatives
