人类学文学士-考古学

考古学是对人类社会从史前历史到现在的发展和变化的研究，其方法是对物质遗骸和/或人工制品的识别，收集和解释。尽管考古学是生物学人类学和法医学的主要贡献者，但考古学与文化人类学关系最密切，在过去时已被描述为文化人类学。作为新兴领域的历史考古学的主要贡献者，该领域与历史实践有着密切的联系。计划从事考古工作的学生应就读考古野外学校。对历史考古学感兴趣的人应该考虑跨学科的历史考古学。还鼓励考古专业的学生参加ANTH 435（民族志类型和方法）。该子学科与历史，地质学，地理，生物学和艺术史有着很强的方法论和主题联系，
Archaeology is the study of the development and change of human societies from the prehistoric past to the present through the identification, gathering and interpretation of material remains and/or artifacts. While a major contributor to biological anthropology and forensics, archaeology is most closely tied to cultural anthropology and has been described as cultural anthropology in the past tense. As a major contributor to the emerging discipline of historical archaeology, the field has strong ties to the practice of history. Students planning a career in archaeology should enroll in an archaeological field school. Those interested in historical archaeology should consider the interdisciplinary historical archaeology minor. Archaeology students are also encouraged to take ANTH 435, Ethnographic Genres and Methods. This sub-discipline shares strong methodological and thematic ties with history, geology, geography, biology and art history, and upper-level course electives from these areas are encouraged. Students are encouraged to consider co-majoring or minoring in these fields as a complement to their education.
