This is an intensive, hands-on course that makes use of real human skeletal material from the FROST/FARL donated collection. This course is designed to provide students with in-depth knowledge of bone biology and skeletal anatomy, and the skills to conduct advanced metric and non-metric skeletal analysis for determining human/non-human differentiation, pathology, trauma, and estimation of sex, ancestry, stature, and age-at-death.
