Notas del editor
- Anthropology may be classified as physical and cultural.
- “Father of History of Human Civilization” for he founded the Greek and Roman historiographical tradition. He was born in the ancient city of Caria – later Halicarnassus (now Turkey) Persian Empire – the dominant culture in East during the 4th century BC. He wrote the history of the Greco-Persian Wars (499-479 BC) Greeks – the dominant culture of the West at the time
- He believed that the universe is governed by Fate and Chance and nothings is permanent in human affairs. He was considered as the leading source of original information not only for Greek history but for Egypt as well He compiled all the inquires, observations, experiences, and studies into an omnibus of source known as historia that later served as excellent reference for different fields of interest like history, anthropology, sociology, archeology, and the like.
- Born in Tunis in the region of Tunisia to a Spanish-Arab family that played an important political role in Southern Spain and became the greatest of the Medieval Islamic historians He received his formal education in the Qu’ran, Arabic poetry and Islamic law. Wrote Kiatab Al-lbar or Universal History that guided the history of Muslim North Africa and the Berbers (desperate barbaric ethnic groups in North and West Africa).
- Taught at the University of Al-Azhar and his important contribution was the Muqaddimah (first systematic study on history and society). Religion in Khaldun’s view is the strongest motivator to unite the members of society.
- The contemporary study of anthropology dawned during the exploration and colonization of lands by the European conquistadores in the America, Africa, Asia and the Pacific. The first contact of the colonizers, during the 14th and 19th century, to the countless and variety of local inhabitants triggered some scholars to study, understand, and deliberate the diversity of man and cultures. At the beginning of the 19th century, several scientific observations such as stone tools that were indicated by several anthropologists scrutinized the humanity’s past.

- First French paleontologist, geologist and archeologist who discovered, fossil remains in southwestern France in 1834 He study on fossils from the Tertiary period (65-1.6 million years) and Quarternary period or Ice Age (1.6 million years to present) He believed that Ice Age mammals and humans live during the era simultaneously
- A maternal grandchild of Erasmus Darwin, a freethinking physician, physiologist and poet before the French Revolution started from 1789-1799. At the age of 22, He joined the crew of the HMS Beagle Expedition on Dec. 27, 1831 as a naturalist Several biologist and geologist patterned their doctrines Darwin’s Natural selection and evolution that early humans adapted to the constant changes to the environment.

Two fundamental laws: Law of Segregation. Genes are transferred as separate and distinct units from one generation to the next. Law of independent assortment. It theorized that the alleles (one or more genes that may occur alternatively at a given site on a chromosome) of the gene pairs – one on each paired of chromosomes – separate during the formation of sex cells by a parent organism.
- Morgan called his evolutionary stages ethnical periods and labeled them Savagery (with three stages: Lower, Middle, and Upper), Barbarism (also with three stages), and Civilization. Morgan did not necessarily believe in the use of his theory to promote racism, ethnocentrism, or exploitation. But like others of his time, he considered Western civilization to be the highest form of culture. Morgan believed that race, nationality, language, and culture were all related and that Europeans were the most biologically and culturally advanced people
- British anthropologist, born in London. became interested in anthropology in 1856 while accompanying the British ethnologist Henry Christy on a scientific journey through Mexico. his first book Anahuac, or Mexico and the Mexicans (1861). He served as the first professor of anthropology at the University of Oxford from 1896 to 1909. Tylor's studies about animism and his definition of culture were important early contributions to the field of anthropology. His major works are Researches into the Early History of Mankind (1865), Primitive Culture (2 volumes, 1871; new ed., 1958), and Anthropology (1881). Animism Polytheism Monotheism Culture as complex whole that includes knowledge, belief, art morals, law custom and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of a society.
- FRANZ BOAS (1858-1942) A German-American anthropologist and founder of cultural relativism He believed that the human species is one, but races of mankind are many in which evolved, developed and survived equally in different ways in the passage of time. Boas' anthropological studies have become classics in the field. He pioneered in the use of a scientific approach to anthropology. He also demonstrated the necessity of studying a culture in all its aspects, including its religion, art, history, and language, as well as the physical characteristics of the people. One of his most important conclusions was that no truly pure race exists, and that no race is innately superior to any other. He wrote The Growth of Children (1896), The Mind of Primitive Man (1911), Anthropology and Modern Life (1928), and Race, Language, and Culture (1940).
