>Archeology

>Study of past human society based on material evidences

>Anthropology

>Study of human psychology, behavior, and culture of past and present

Is this about right definitions?

>>34701

Yeah, that's about right.

Did this really warrant it's own thread, though?

>Anthropology is the study of humans from the past and present. The goal of anthropology is to better understand the different cultures of human history and to look for solutions in human problems. Anthropologists use social, biological, and physical science to get a better grasp on human cultures. Because of this use of many different sciences, anthropology can be considered an interdisciplinary study.

>Archaeology is similar to anthropology in that it focuses on understanding human culture from the deepest history up until the recent past. It differs from anthropology in that it focuses specifically on analyzing material remains such as artifact and architectural remnants. Artifacts might include pottery, crude stone tools, and bones. Archeology is a more specific branch of anthropology.
