Question

t anthropology is the study/analysis of fossil
evidences of the proto-humans like that of Lucy/Dinkeneshe. True or false

Answer 1

False. The study of fossil evidence of proto-humans, such as Lucy (Australopithecus afarensis) and Dinknesh, is specifically part of paleoanthropology, which is a subfield of anthropology. Anthropology as a whole encompasses a wider range of topics, including cultural anthropology, social anthropology, linguistic anthropology, and biological anthropology, among others. Paleoanthropology focuses specifically on the fossil record and the evolutionary history of hominins.
