ANTH 1001 Chapter : Exam II Review
Document Summary
Review how certain groups of characteristics have specific emphases. What are some of the characteristics of each. I recommend drawing out the primate chart from your book and writing a couple traits of each group next to the names. Be able to define them and any special characteristics. Name and explain the four different types of data that anthropologists use the most. Be most familiar with the ones i listed above and discussed the most in class; specifically, know what they are and what their limitations are. Be familiar with the epochs and their chronological order. Know and understand the anatomical changes of bipedalism. Know the genus/species, what they date to, where found (and existed), what are their important characteristics and why they are significant. Define: prognathism, diastema, sexual dimorphism, foramen magnum, megadontia. Please keep in mind that this is only a guideline for studying. If it was discussed in the lecture, book, or movie, it is fair material.
