Anthropoloy Subfield Test
I took the following "test" that seems to be desinged for high school kids or new undergraduates. Some of the questions were obvious (and hilarious) but the results were only halfway accurate (the "bio" prefix isn't my bag). Leave a comment if you take the test yourself!
The best question:
Now that we're done, what are you likely to do next? (You can leave blank if none of these appeal to you...It makes me wonder, though, if you really are an anthropologist!)
-drink beer with my new pals
-drink beer until 3 am, get up and go to work at 5 am
-study the effects of alcohol on the human body (aka drinking beer)
-bink dreer
| Bioarchaeologist You scored 22 living culture, 48 growing culture, 58 digging culture, and 12 talking culture! |
| Your answers suggest you would be interested in bioarchaeology. Typically, bioarchaeologists are interested in what bones can tell us about past human societies. Often, bones are examined for age, sex, trauma and disease, burial treatments, and associations with grave goods. These can provide clues about social classes, population structure, and relationships to ancestral or descendant populations. |
