SOCI 270 Introduction to Archeology

The course is organized around the broadest possible definition of archeology: the study of artifacts in relation to human behavior at any time and place. Tracing the journey of humankind across two million years of evolution from crude chopping tools to high speed computers, archeology provides a framework for reading the stories of change from the material evidence. SOCI 270 or 271 may be counted toward the SOCI major, but not both courses.
