| | Anthropology is the study of humans through time and space. Anthropological research is conducted with scientific methodology. Anthropology is broken into four sub fields: Cultural Anthropology, Archaeology, Biological/Physical Anthropology and Linguistic Anthropology. Even though anthropologists will specialize in one of the sub fields, because Anthropologists view all the components of humanity (biology/culture/language/history) as an inter-related whole, they generally have an understanding of the others. All Anthropologists rely heavily on relevant literature to create a foundation for a specific project. After the foundation is created an Anthropologist will then conduct "field work." | | Anthropology is the study of humans through time and space.
