Episode Synopsis
In this first episode of The Restful Record Season 2, we explore the fascinating world of anthropology. From the discovery of Lucy and the evolution of early humans like Homo habilis and Homo erectus, to the study of Neanderthals and human DNA, we trace the story of our species. We also delve into cultural anthropology, examining Margaret Mead’s groundbreaking research, the fight against scientific racism, and the principles of cultural relativism. Plus, we explore forensic and medical anthropology, uncovering how bones and culture reveal truths about identity, health, and history.
