paleoanthropology Research in Germany and Croatia. NIU participatesin ongoing paleolithic archaeology projects in Croatia and Germany
http://www3.niu.edu/acad/anthro/paleoanthro.htm

Extractions: NIU participates in ongoing paleolithic archaeology projects in Croatia and Germany, in association with the Institute of Archaeology at the University of Zagreb and the Archaeological Institute of the University of Tubingen. NIU students take part in both of these projects and carry out human paleontological research in both countries. NIU anthropology professor Fred H. Smith has worked for many years in Croatia, Germany, and throughout Central Europe. Most recently he has been conducting the osteological analysis of new human skeletal remains from the original Neandertal site in Germany, in conjunction with Swiss and German colleagues. Smith's research on the new Neandertal remains from the Neandertal type site has received support in the form of a grant from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in Germany.

http://www.mnh.si.edu/anthro/humanorigins/faq/race.htm

Extractions: What are the differences between races and how long ago did these differences evolve? Do these differences have anything to do with the migration of different populations into new parts of the world? Answering questions on race is challenging given that most anthropologists regard race as a cultural concept rather than a biological reality. In the biological sciences, the term race has historically been used to describe a distinct population in which all the members share a suite of biological traits. Today, most anthropologists agree that there is no adequate way to divide the world's human population in the cut and dry manner that the definition of race traditionally requires. So, when in the past did phenotypic diversity of the sort found in modern humans evolve? To answer this question, anthropologists usually look to correlations that exist between external traits and environmental variations. The evolution of varied skin color offers a good example. At some point in human evolution the amount and length of body hair commonly seen as a thick coat in other primates was greatly reduced. Only a fine coat of body hair was retained, which means that the skin of modern people is much more exposed to the elements than in other primates. Increases and decreases in skin pigmentation became a crucial way of adapting to the diverse climate zones that humans, especially modern humans, came to inhabit.

ANTH202 - Paleoanthropology
paleoanthropology ANTH 202 FA. Crosslistings ARCP 202, The history of paleoanthropologyhowour views of our past have changedwill also be explored.
http://www.wesleyan.edu/course/anth202f.htm

Extractions: ARCP Paleoanthropology is the study of human origins, of how we evolved from our apelike ancestors into our modern form with our modern capabilities. Drawing on both biological anthropology (the study of fossils, living primates, human variation) and archaeology (the study of material culture, such as tools, art, food remains), the course will examine what we know about our own evolutionary past, and how we know it. The history of paleoanthropologyhow our views of our past have changedwill also be explored. TBA Two in-class exams, final exam, laboratory experience, bi-weekly short essay. Friday classes will either meet at regular time (1:00-2:00) or at specific section times for labs or discussion (1:10, 2:10, 3:10). Your schedule must be able to accommodate both times on Friday. Unless preregistered students attend the first class meeting or communicate directly with the instructor prior to the first class, they will be dropped from the class list. NOTE: Students must still submit a completed Drop/Add form to the Registrar's Office.

Extractions: A Speculation of Neanderthal Life One of the most misunderstood enigmas in human history is the Neanderthal. From the first discovery of our ancient relative in a German countryside valley in 1856, Neanderthal has been clouded in obscurity. Most people think of a brutish and hairy creature more ape than man, wielding a club, devoid of rational though or evident civilization. This view is inaccurate at best. Although Neanderthal was a primitive man, increasing evidence points to the strong possibility of intelligence and culture. Through careful deduction, a more accurate and detailed story of Neanderthal can be pieced together. Neanderthals lived throughout Europe, but evidence has also been found as far East as Southern Russia. They had very thick bones that displayed much wear from strenuous use. Although shorter than modern humans, these people were incredibly strong and had larger skulls than any other hominid to date. In one specimen the brain capacity measured 1740ml. Although brain capacity has little to do with intelligence, it is an interesting aspect. Studies have determined that cognitive reasoning ability is centered in the frontal lobes of the brain. Modern human skulls have greater room in the front for this area of the brain, whereas Neanderthal brains were located primarily in the back of the skull, where more basic, instinctual functions are believed to take place.
Baugh's Paleoanthropology Degree
Director of Australia's Creation Science Foundation to Jim Lippard dated June 22,1994, Carl Baugh does not possess a degree in paleoanthropology from Clifford
http://www.skeptic.com/wieland-letter.html

Extractions: According to a letter from Carl Wieland, Managing Director of Australia's Creation Science Foundation to Jim Lippard dated June 22, 1994, Carl Baugh does not possess a degree in paleoanthropology from Clifford Wilson's Pacific College in Australia. Baugh has claimed a "Masters Degree in Archaeology from Pacific College" and a "Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Anthropology from [the] College of Advanced Education." The latter institution is a small house in Irving, Texas, which shares the address of the Sherwood Baptist Church. The pastor of the church and the dean of the college are the same person: Rev. Don Davis. Davis says that Baugh's degree "through" CAE was granted "under the auspices of Clifford Wilson in Australia." When Baugh was introduced at a 1983 creationism conference, the introducer stated that he was at work on his Ph.D. in paleoanthropology under the supervision of Clifford Wilson. All of these and more details may be found in Kuban (1989a).

CENTENARY OF VYGOTSKY'S BIRTH We are initiating what we hope will mark the start of a continuing resource for anyone interested in exploring his work. Within Vygotsky's conceptualisation of human psychology, a basic notion is that of mediation. The point being made is that humans in their history have invented cultural tools, both material and and psychological, that constitute a 'cognitive technology' whereby we have restructured our abilities and reconfigured our 'nature'.

Challenging European replacement See also Paleoanthropology in CogWeb's bibliography Introduction: The Hominid Family "The terminology of our immediate biological family is currently in flux; for an overview, see a current hominoid taxonomy. The term hominin refers to any genus in the human tribe (Hominini), of which Homo sapiens (modern man) is the only living specimen. We don't have to go too far back into the past, however, to find relatives (cf. We Were Not Alone, SciAm Jan 2000). Discounting abominable snowmen, yeti, bigfoot, and other merely rumored possible members of our family, we know that only 28,000 years ago Neanderthals still thrived in Europe. More surprisingly, recent evidence (see below) suggests that a member of even longer standing, Homo erectus, who first appears in the fossil record nearly two million years ago, may have continued to inhabit the island of Java as recently as ten thousand years ago, or into historical times.

Emphasis is placed on the fundamentals of paleoanthropological research, evidence of human evolution, trends in human evolution, important fossil finds and sites, and phylogenetic relationships. Upon successful completion of this course, students will understand the field of paleoanthropology within the context of evolutionary theory. become familiar with the types of evidence used to study human origins. review the fossil evidence of primate evolution.
