教学目标 Course Objectives
This course is an introduction to the field of cultural anthropology and archeology. It is divided into two segments and
taught by a different instructor and having a separate exam. The first segment, taught by Prof. Zhichun Jing, deals with
archaeology. The second segment of the course concerns cultural anthropology and is taught by Prof. Zhou Yongming.
Archaeology studies the human past, both ancient and recent, through the analysis of material remains recovered by
archaeological excavation and survey. Although archaeological research often advances slowly by gradually
accumulating data, we use that body of information to address larger research questions that are fundamental to
understanding the place of our species in the world today.
Cultural Anthropology describes, analyzes and explains similarities and differences among human cultures and shows
how groups adapt to their environments and invest their lives with meaning. Only through an in-depth understanding of
human experience in its entirety can we really discover who we are as human beings, our potentials and our perils.
