Intro to Archaeology/Prehistory

The spreadsheet link above shows the different variations of the human skull that I have studied throughout the entire course. I organized the information in such a way that it is easy to understand if you comprehend the anthropological variation of different cultural time period skeletal remains. Perhaps it may not make sense at first, but once you get the hand of how Anthropology works, it is easy to retain the information of the different skull sizes. Why do I study this? Forensic anthropologists all rely on evidence, by having this on display and it may not like a present day human, it will result in not taking further action in a criminal investigation since these bones are thousands or even millions of years old. Enjoy this insightful information!
