Anthropology is the scientific study of humans, exploring what makes us human and how we came to be. It is a holistic discipline that encompasses our biology, behavior, culture, and societies, both in the present and the past. Anthropologists seek to understand the diversity of human experiences, from the smallest hunter-gatherer bands to the largest and most complex civilizations.
Through fieldwork, observation, and analysis, anthropologists shed light on the fundamental questions of human existence: Where did we come from? How did we evolve? How do we communicate and interact with each other? What is the nature of culture? How do societies change over time?
Anthropology is a broad and multifaceted field, with four main subfields: cultural anthropology, archaeology, linguistic anthropology, and biological anthropology. Cultural anthropology examines the social, cultural, and symbolic dimensions of human life, while archaeology investigates the material remains of past cultures. Linguistic anthropology studies the diversity of human languages and their role in shaping human thought and experience. Biological anthropology focuses on the biological aspects of human variation and evolution.
