(Cont) Sub-disciplines of Anthropology While it is easy to define, anthropology is difficult to describe….. - ..as its subject matter is both exotic (e.g., star lore of the Australian aborigines) and common place (food habits and customs of eating).
- Its focus is both sweeping (the evolution of language) and microscopic (the use-wear of ancestral tools).
- Anthropologists may study ancient Mayan hieroglyphics, the music of African Pygmies, and the corporate culture of a U.S. car manufacturer.
