Archeology Archaeologists study past peoples and cultures, from the deepest prehistory to the recent past through the analysis of material remains, ranging from artifacts and evidence of past environments to architecture and landscapes. Material evidence such as pottery, stone tools, animal bone, and remains of structures is examined within the context of theoretical paradigms, to address such topics as the formation of social groupings ideologies, subsistence patterns, and interaction with the environment. Like other areas of anthropology, archaeology is a comparative discipline; it assumes basic human continuities over time and place, but also recognizes that every society is the product of its own particular history and that within every society there are commonalities as well as variation

Linguistic Anthropolog LINGUISTIC ANTHROPOLOGY C WILEY-BLACKWELL Linguistic anthropology is the comparative study of ways in which language reflects and influences social life. It explores the many ways in which language practices define patterns of communication, formulate categories of social identity and group membership, d organize large-scale cultural beliefs and ideologies, and in conjunction with other forms of meaning-makiny, equip people with common cultural representations of their natural and social worlds.
