The Anthropological Archaeology minor offers students an
opportunity to contextualize the modern world through the recent and
more distant past. The minor emphasizes both the methods by which
archaeologists study the past and areas of geographic and topical
interest. The minor is ideal for students interested in understanding
the long-term processes underlying modern global phenomena
such as urban development, increasing inequality, the adoption of
agriculture, foodways, and human adaptation to climate change.
