6.1 PALEOPATHOLOGY/DISEASE IN THE PAST Anthropologists often obtain data on health, disease, and death from ancient populations using the methods of paleopathology, the study of ancient disease. Paleopathology not only gives us a glimpse into conditions in ancient populations. It also contributes to our evolutionary perspective of disease. By looking at populations in different environments over time, we may be able to gain insights into the long-term relationships of human biology, culture, an ...

Bonobo (Pan paniscus) Bonobos were not officially identified as a species seperate from common chimpanzees until the 1920's. They are in fact much more than little chimpanzees. Humans and Bonobos share between 99 and 99.6% of their genetic makeup. Their lack of agressiveness and excitability (quite unlike chimpanzees) is thought to perhaps be more similar to the first humans. There is also growing evidence that bonobos may be as different from chimpanzees as chimps are to goril ...

Forensic Anthropology Forensic anthropology is the examination of skeletal remains. This examination can be used to first determine if the remains are in fact human. Then the forensic anthropologist can determine the gender, approximate age, physical stature, and likely racial affiliation of the person in life. The examination can also yield approximate time since death, likely cause of death and any identifying illnesses or wounds suffered in life that could leave traces in the bone structure. ...

In the middle are the bones of a man believed ...
