"Man with all his noble qualities, with sympathy which feels for the most debased, with benevolence which extends not only to other men but to the humblest living creature, with his god-like intellect which has penetrated into the movements and constitution of the solar system—with all these exalted powers—Man still bears in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his lowly origin."
—The Descent of Man, 1871
Biological anthropology (also physical anthropology) is the branch of anthropology that studies, in the context of other primates, the development of the human species. Biological anthropology incorporates bio-cultural studies of human diversity, the ancestry of the human species; and the comparative anatomy, behavior, history, and ecology, of historic and present-day primates. It mostly studies hominid fossil evidence and their evolution and studies. [From Wikipedia]
The goal of this group is to form a collection of artwork relating to human evolution, our primate relatives and the emergence of culture; to establish conversations of intellectual concern, especially pertaining to anthropology; and to celebrate the wondrous new discoveries that occur.
