Anthropologists ask questions such as: Who are we? Where did we come from? How did we get here? Why are we different from each other? What do all humans share in common? And, how can we better understand each other?
Anthropology students might study, for example, our distant human ancestors from the African plains, historic military forts in the Mesilla Valley, Native American languages, prehistoric and modern cultures of the American Southwest and Mesoamerica, or contemporary issues in applied anthropology.
