A team of scientists has uncovered the site of an ancient city along a river. Which question could an anthropologist and an archaeologist work together to help answer?

Question

A: how does the structure of the skulls at the site compare to modern humans?
B: what type of meat did the humans at the site eat and which organisms are they teeth similar to?
C:what is the age of the rocks around the site?
D: what tools were found at the site and how old are they?

Answer 1

A question that an anthropologist and an archaeologist could work together to help answer is:

B: what type of meat did the humans at the site eat and which organisms are their teeth similar to?

This question involves both the analysis of human remains, which falls under the study of anthropology, and the examination of artifacts and ecological data, which is the focus of archaeology. Together, they could collaborate to interpret dietary habits based on both skeletal analysis and archaeological evidence from the site.
