at first I didn't have that much excitement with this course, I never imagined I would be able to meet these amazing people with different discoveries that contribute to how humans keep on discovering where we came from and how our ancestors lived. This contribute greatly to society and how we humans continue the search for our identities and understanding of how the world used to work. I can say that I enjoyed this course very much and I am interested in learning more about the bioanthro world in the future.
