人类学哲学博士-考古人类学

纽约大学人类学系的考古学课程为学生提供了考古学理论，方法，考古学的历史和发展（社会科学和自然科学学科）的广泛基础，以及有关区域考古学记录的广泛而深入的知识遍布欧亚大陆，非洲和北美。我们理解过去人类行为的多样性和演变的方法强调了古代技术以及地质和环境背景对于解释考古记录的重要性。
Anthropological Archaeology seeks both to understand the human pastincluding cultural origins and evolution, human adaptations, inequality, agriculture, and urban lifeand to link this past to the world that we inhabit today. Archaeologists at NYU conduct fieldwork in Africa, Asia, and Europe. We also focus on using laboratory methods and experimental research to better understand human behavioral variability, ancient technologies, and cultural evolution in the past. Through these multidisciplinary scientific approaches, we explore changes in the organization of human societies over time highlighting the importance of geological and environmental context for interpreting the archaeological record. <br>The department is committed to comparative research that seeks theories that allow for the enormous diversity in human life. The program offers a holistic approach to the study of humans and exposes students to the traditional subdisciplines of anthropology while ensuring that they also receive intensive training in particular problems within one subfield.
