Document Summary
Holistic study of humans, past and present that draws and builds upon knowledge from the social sciences, biological sciences, humanities and the natural sciences. Historical, development, mechanisms, and outcomes of biological evolution. Diversity of life and the natural processes that produced this diversity. The primate fossil record, with a basic understanding pattern and processes that evolve in the hominin branch. The basic ecology, behavior, and conservation biology of extant primates. How evolutionary anthropologists apply biological concepts in their research on human health, disease, and forensics. What survives from the past and how can we interpret it. Topic 4: the earliest traces of human behaviour. From the earliest stone tools around 2. 5 mya to the origin of modern homo sapiens. From the origins to peopling of the entire globe. Application of modern evolutionary theory to studies of morphology, ecology and behaviour of human and non-human primates. Seek to conserve primates habitats in vanishing tropical ecosystems.
