As photographer for John Wesley Powell's expeditions to the Southwest sponsored by the Bureau of American Ethnology and Geological Survey, John K. Hillers documented field research findings. However, because of his brilliant sense of light, shadow, composition, and balance, his photographs are also recognized for their uncommon aesthetic qualities. The inventoried collections include sepia prints and numerous albumen prints at Canyon de Chelly, the Walpi and Jemez Pueblos, and of various scenes taken between 1872 and 1882 along the route of the Atchison, Topeka and Sante Fe Railroad. A set of stereographs by Hillers and other expedition photographers such as Timothy O'Sullivan contain scenes from everyday life, cliff dwellings, and identified portraits of Navajo, Mohave, Zuni, and Paiute. Some of the prints provide a context for the artifacts collected during the Powell expeditions and housed at the Peabody Museum.

Anthropology Bookshelf
The LinguaLinks Anthropology bookshelf also includes the entire contents of cultural anthropology, an introductory anthropology textbook written by Paul G.
http://www.ethnologue.com/LL_docs/anthro_bkshlf.asp

Extractions: LinguaLinks Library The LinguaLinks Anthropology bookshelf focuses on providing essential help to field workers for living and working in cross-cultural situations. Cultural awareness is a theme in every one of the LinguaLinks Library bookshelves because it is so fundamental to the process of working with minority and endangered languages. Anthropology is not intended to be a separate compartment in a field worker's mental filing cabinet or an item on a checklist, but a discipline for thinking, observing, and relating throughout the course of a language project. Language workers who understand the culture of the minority language group they are working with will better be able to serve the group. They will be able quickly to find their appropriate roles in the local community, and to relate to the community in ways that are meaningful to them. If culture learning is done well, it will enhance the outcome of the whole project.

Marcus, George E.: Anthropology As Cultural Critique
Marcus, George E. anthropology as cultural Critique, university press books, shopping cart, new release notification.
http://www.press.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/hfs.cgi/00/1436.ctl

Extractions: Using cultural anthropology to analyze debates that reverberate throughout the human sciences, George E. Marcus and Michael M. J. Fischer look closely at cultural anthropology's past accomplishments, its current predicaments, its future direction, and the insights it has to offer other fields of study. The result is a provocative work that is important for scholars interested in a critical approach to social science, art, literature, and history, as well as anthropology. This second edition considers new challenges to the field which have arisen since the book's original publication.
Maxwell School: Department Of Anthropology

http://www.maxwell.syr.edu/anthro/

Extractions: Social Science Disciplines Anthropology A nthropology at Syracuse is committed to comparative research on the diversity of human life and advocates a holistic viewpoint that attends to ramifications of human life as seen through the traditional four subfields of anthropology (archaeology, biological anthropology, linguistic anthropology and socio-cultural anthropology). Within sociocultural anthropology, the department has strengths in: issues of cultural and socio-economic change, of language and power, the cultural and political dimensions of religious systems, space and its use by humans, environmental issues, conflict studies, and local-level political economies and their ties with the larger global political economy, particularly through processes of globalization. The field of anthropological praxis is continually evolving, encompassing applied anthropology, activist anthropology, and the study of social movements. We see it primarily as a study of participatory processes, including social movements, that seek to address social inequality, oppression, conflict and violence. At the same time, we recognize that the field incorporates issues of public policy, representation (as in museums or tourism), and preservation. For students whose goal is directed more to anthropology within the public sector, the Masters in Public Administration through the Executive Education Program is a possibility. Other students may seek additional work in
Anthropology At UNT: NSF: Purpose
This is an internal page that provides a template to create new pages within the anthropology web site.
http://www.unt.edu/anthropology/nsf.htm

Extractions: The UNT Summer Research Program is a national site for one of the National Science Foundations Research Experience for Undergraduate (REU) programs. Its a 10 week long opportunity where undergraduates work in close collaboration with faculty mentors and staff to both learn and apply social science research methods, particularly those from a scientifically anthropological point of view. The program starts out with five weeks of intensive instruction in theory, methodology, data collection and interpretation, research skills, critical thinking, and writing. The instruction will be in the form of interactive lectures, discussions, assignments, and readings. Following that is five weeks of focused individual research. Participants will prepare a literature review, design research with the help of a faculty mentor, and prepare a proposal to submit to an Institutional Review Board (IRB). After conducting research, students will produce a research report and make a professional poster presentation. Past participants have had the opportunity to publish in an acclaimed online undergraduate research journal. The UNT REU program is for college students who are between their sophomore and senior years, who are members of groups traditionally under-represented in colleges and universities, including minority students and first-generation college students.
Human Civilisation & Modern Culture, Civilizations
It is difficult to generalise on human lifestyles as adaptation to the environment is a continual, cultural and learned process.
http://www.ecotao.com/holism/hu_mod.htm

Extractions: CIVILISATION: MODERN CULTURES Return to: Human evolution index page. Humanity has passed through three major evolutionary phases - hunter gatherer agricultural and technological . It is difficult to generalise on human lifestyles as adaptation to the environment is a continual, cultural and learned process. Instead of genetic adaptation, cultural adaptation has been important. Physical changes are small. Forest dwellers tend to be small, with a light muscular frame (Beazley, 1990). Eastern Mediterranean hunter gatherers of 30,000 to 9,000 years ago stood at five feet ten inches. Agriculturalists of 5,000 to 3,000 years ago, from the same region, only average five foot three inches (Kates, 1994). The American average in the industrial society of today is five foot eight inches. Evidence suggests that both the size and robustness of humans, and their brain volume has decreased over the last 10,000 years or so (Sci. Am, early 1995). For a very detailed history of the past 20,000 years refer to Mithen's (2003) 600 page book.
