[edit] Anthropology
In North America, anthropology is traditionally divided into four sub-disciplines:
- Physical anthropology, or biological anthropology, which studies primate behavior, human evolution, osteology, forensics, and population genetics;
- Cultural anthropology (called social anthropology and now often known as socio-cultural anthropology in the United Kingdom, and both terms are used in Canada with limited distinction), which studies social networks, diffusion, social behavior, kinship patterns, law, politics, ideology, religion, beliefs, patterns in production and consumption, exchange, socialization, gender, and other expressions of culture, with strong emphasis on the importance of fieldwork or participant observation (that is, living among the social group being studied for an extended period of time);
- Linguistic anthropology, which studies variation in language across time and space, the social uses of language, and the relationship between language and culture, and
- Archaeology, which studies the material remains of human societies. Archaeology itself is normally treated as a separate (but related) field in the rest of the world, although closely related to the anthropological field of material culture, which deals with physical objects created or used within a living or past group as a means of understanding its cultural values.
