General Description / Special Programs
The Department is organized into two distinct but related wings. The Evolutionary Wing comprises biological anthropologists, human behavioral ecologists, and archaeologists. Specialties include the study of human and primate biology and behavior in ecological contexts over archaeological and evolutionary timescales. The Evolutionary Wing draws upon the rich resources provided by the natural and behavioral sciences at Davis and the rich archaeological record of CA and neighboring states. The Sociocultural Wing is composed of social, cultural, and linguistic anthropologists committed to understanding how people organize their lives and interpret their circumstances in the modern/postmodern world. S-Wing faculty stand out for their work in science and technology studies, feminist theory, medical anthropology, state-building, post-socialist states, knowledge systems and knowledge production, film studies, and world anthropologies. The Sociocultural Wing draws upon the considerable resources located in the humanities and social sciences at Davis.
