Prerequisite: permission of instructor. Ori-gins

Americans. Examination of the archaeologi-cal
record, both statewide and regionally,

social environments from 12,000 B.P. until
early historic times. (Formerly ANTH 139T)
145. Cultural Resources Management (3)
Prerequisite: permission of instructor. Pro-vides
an in-depth overview of historic and
prehistoric cultural resources (districts, sites,
buildings, and objects), their significance,
and their management in the U.S. Topics
include the legal context for CRM, identi-fying
and evaluating cultural resources,
assessing effects, treatment planning, and
careers in CRM. G.E. Integration ID. (For-merly
ANTH 139T)
159T. Topics in Archaeology (1-6;
max total 12 if no topic repeated)
Prerequisite: varies with title. Special stud-ies
in archaeological methods, techniques,
history and theory, or of prehistoric culture
areas not covered in the regular curricu-lum.
(Formerly ANTH 139T)
D. PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY
CURRICULUM
161. Bio/Behavioral Evolution
of the Human Species (3)
Prerequisite: General Education Area B2
lower division requirement. Examines the
evolution of the human species and its
relationship to living and extinct primates.
Explores the biological basis of human
culture. Integrates evolutionary biology,
geochronology, and anthropology in order
to understand the bio/behavioral nature of
modern man. G.E. Integration IB.
162. Primates (3)
Prerequisite: ANTH 1. An introduction to
the study of primate biological and behav-ioral
evolution. Explores sociobiological
theory in order to explain the unity and
diversity of social behavior in prosimians,
monkeys, and apes.
163. Human Variation (3)
Prerequisite: ANTH 1. A cross-cultural
examination of variations in human mor-phology,
physiology, and biochemistry.
Establishes the correlation between varia-tions
in human biology and variations in
climate, culture, nutrition, and disease.
164. Human Osteology (3)
Prerequisite: ANTH 1. Introduces a range
of analytic techniques for extracting
information from human skeletal remains:
sexing and aging, osteometry, odontometry,
126. Cultures and Foods of East Asia (3)
(Same as ASAM 151.) Treats cuisine as a
systematic product of the interaction be-tween
culture and ecology. Focuses on so-ciocultural
rather than bio-nutritional fac-tors
in the preparation and ritual implications
of food in Mainland and Insular Asia. Stu-dents
learn to prepare and serve a variety of
Oriental dishes. (Formerly ANTH 181)
130. Peoples and
Cultures of the Southwest (3)
Prerequisite: ANTH 2. A survey of Native

data. (Formerly ANTH 106)
141. Prehistory
of North America (3)
Prerequisite: ANTH 3. Traces the devel-opment
of Native American cultures from
the Arctic to Mesoamerica, from the peo-pling
of the continent to early historic
times. Examines the archaeological evi-dence
for the antiquity, spread, and varia-tion
of cultural adaptations to changing
ecological conditions. (Formerly ANTH
131)
142. Old World Prehistory (3)
Examination of current knowledge of the
prehistory of one area of the Old World.
Chronologies, current findings, and im-portant
issues in theory method are re-viewed.
Consideration of these matters in
relation to work in archaeology through-out
the world and to work in closely related
disciplines such as biology and geology.
Some historic archaeology may also be
included. Areas include Europe, Asia, the
Middle East, Africa, and Australia. (For-merly
ANTH 132)
the examination and diagnosis of epige-netic
traits and pathological lesion, and the
statistical interpretation of skeletal data.
169T. Topics in Physical Anthropology
(1-6; max total 12 if no topic repeated)
Prerequisite: ANTH 1. Special studies of
the discovery and interpretation of infor-mation
in physical anthropology, and of
the application of this subdiscipline in le-gal,
medical, and scientific research.
E. ADVANCED
STUDY CURRICULUM
190. Independent Study
(1-3; max total 6)
See Academic Placement — Independent
Study. Approved for SP grading.
192. Directed Readings
(1-3; max total 3)
