Instructors: Salmeen, A. (PI)

HUMBIO 6: Human Origins (ANTHRO 6, ANTHRO 206)

The human fossil record from the first non-human primates in the late Cretaceous or early Paleocene, 80-65 million years ago, to the anatomically modern people in the late Pleistocene, between 100,000 to 50,000 B.C.E. Emphasis is on broad evolutionary trends and the natural selective forces behind them.
