Preferred term

evolutionary anthropology  

Definition(s)

  • Evolutionary perspectives have been part of anthropology since its beginnings, but their content and prominence have shifted dramatically. In contemporary anthropology, evolution plays a much more prominent role in biological anthropology, and even in archaeology, than in sociocultural anthropology.
