Extractions: To Shoot to the Top The unequivocal need to identify forensic scientists qualified to provide essential professional services for the nation's judicial and executive branches of government has long been recognized. In response to this professional mandate, the American Board of Forensic Anthropology was organized in 1977 to provide, in the interest of the public and the advancement of the science, a program of certification in forensic anthropology. In purpose, function, and organization, the ABFA is thus analogous to the certifying boards in various medical specialties and scientific fields.

Extractions: This site was originally designed as my own personal "library" of links to resources available on the web dealing with the various subdivisions of biological anthropology. As my search for useful resources continued, I realized this type of listing may be of use to others as well. Links are arranged by subject category, and each is accompanied by a short description. Please keep in mind that this page is continually under construction. If you don't find what you need, check back. New links are added regularly. Note: This page will not provide links to ludicrous theories or creationist arguments. It is meant to be a scholarly resource for those interested in biological anthropology and related disciplines.

Extractions: Our department is unique in that it offers a four-field approach, providing breadth of training. The core courses for the Masters (MA) and PhD programs provide an in-depth introduction to anthropology as a whole. Because of the broad education offered, graduates and advanced students of the program would be qualified to teach in areas beyond their own specialty, resulting in multiple teaching opportunities. Our program is ranked 6th nationally. Graduates have distinguished themselves by their own contributions to scholarship and service and are employed at universities and institutions which include: Northwestern University, University of Colorado, University of Virginia, University of Wisconsin, and Yale. The Anthropology Department at U. Penn offers multiple opportunities for interdisciplinary work with several programs and research centers , among them are: African Studies Center; Programs in Language, Cultures, and Societies; Ethnohistory Program; Latin American Cultures Program; MD/PhD program; Medical Anthropology; and the Urban Studies program. There is also a strong public interest anthropology focus.

Extractions: Forensic Anthropology The old saying that "Dead men do tell tales" was borne out in a remarkable French murder case in which a skeleton gave up sufficient of its secrets to identify the victim and trap a pair of murderers. In 1889 police were called to a riverside location near Lyons where the badly decomposed body of a man had been discovered. Close by was a decayed wooden trunk bearing evidence that it had been sent to Lyons from Paris by railway. Monsieur Goron, Chief of the Surete, thought the corpse might be that of a Paris bailiff, a man called Gouffe, who had been reported missing. One of Gouffe's relatives was asked to view the remains, but as he was unable to make any identification the corpse was buried. Convinced that a crime had been committed, Boron obtained an exhumation order and three months after it was discovered the corpse was disinterred. The post-mortem examination was carried out by Alexandre Lacassagne, Professor of Forensic Medicine at Lyons University. His attention was drawn to the condition of the right leg and ankle of the skeleton which suggested the muscles on that limb had been weaker than on the other. He thought this might have been due to disease and further examination showed that the right kneecap was deformed indicating inflammation of the joint during life. The weights of the bones in the right leg were also significantly lower than those of the left. Lacassagne's opinion was that the dead man had probably suffered tubercular disease in that leg, and would certainly have walked with a limp.
