Zooarchaeology: Lecture

Zooarchaeology Lecture

ANTH 2500 (“Zooarchaeology: Lecture”) is a conceptual introduction to the specialized analysis of animal bones recovered from archaeological sites and to how these remains can be used to build defensible claims about the past. In weekly lectures, students will be introduced to the principles of zooarchaeological analysis, the basic physiology of the vertebrate skeleton, theories of multispecies archaeology, and the particular roles played by animals in the colonial history of the New Mexico as an extended case study. Students enrolled in ANTH 2500 must also enroll in ANTH 2501 (“Zooarchaeology: Lab”), the latter of which offers complementary opportunities to work in the laboratory with zooarchaeological artifacts recovered during Barnard’s field program at the site of San Antonio del Embudo, NM. Lectures in ANTH 2500 will support this research not just by illuminating the analytical logics of zooarchaeology but also by providing a background to the specific human-animal ecologies of colonial New Mexico.

Programming for Scientists

R for Scientists

Learning objectives:

This course will provide a comprehensive foundation in programming methodology for quantitative biology applications that can be readily applied to any programming language. It is recommended for students interested in establishing or expanding their computational biology skillset. After completing this course, students should be able to:

1. Understand and explain the role of numerical and statistical methods in biology

2. Execute numerical computations using a widely-used programming language

3. Recognize common programming motifs that can be readily applied to other widely used languages

4. Design and troubleshoot algorithms to analyze diverse biological data and implement them using functions and scripts

5. Apply statistical programming techniques to model biological systems

6. Generate and interpret diverse plots based on biological datasets

 

Course overview: 

Once a small subfield of biology, computational biology has evolved into a massive field of its own, with computational methods fast becoming a vital toolkit leveraged by biologists across the discipline. As the size and complexity of biological datasets grows, computational methods allow scientists to make sense of these data, scaling quantitative methods to extract meaningful insights that help us better understand ourselves and the living world around us. In this course, we will learn the basics of computer programming in R, a powerful programming language with wide use in the biological sciences. Topics will include a basic introduction to R and the RStudio environment, data types and control structures, reading and writing files in R, data processing and visualization, manipulating common biological datasets; and statistical testing and modeling in R.

Zooarchaeology Lab

ANTH 2501 (“Zooarchaeology: Lab”) is a hands-on introduction to the specialized analysis of animal bones recovered from archaeological sites and to how these remains can be used to build defensible claims about the past. Students enrolled in ANTH 2501 must also be enrolled in ANTH 2500 (“Zooarchaeology: Lecture”), which serves as a parallel introduction to the principles of zooarchaeological analysis, the basic physiology of the vertebrate skeleton, theories of multispecies archaeology, and the particular roles played by animals in the colonial history of the New Mexico as an extended case study. ANTH 2501, in turn, convenes in the laboratory to provide opportunities to work with actual zooarchaeological artifacts recovered during Barnard’s field program at the site of San Antonio del Embudo, NM. Each student will be assigned an assemblage of bones and will work through the process of collecting and interpreting data on the past animal communities that generated these remains. Students will be briefly introduced to the ceramic, chipped stone, and metal artifacts from the same archaeological context, but our collective focus will be on building datasets to illuminate how animals were herded, hunted, traded, processed, turned into food, and discarded in the American West during the 18th through early 20th centuries

AI: A History

How can history help us understand the current AI hype? And when would a history of AI begin? This course turns to the past to better understand the present. Rather than beginning with the dawn of digital computers, the course situates contemporary artificial intelligence within a longer tradition of attempts to build automata and calculating machines. The course interrogates three interrelated ideas that have been instrumental in the development of AI: Intelligence, Automation, and Fiction. The course will consider questions such as: How have ideas about what intelligence is and who possesses it been inscribed in the computing devices researchers design and build? How in turn have computational approaches shaped what does and does not count as intelligence? What can earlier efforts to automate labor tell us about contemporary conversations about the end of work? And what role has speculative fiction, the promissory, and fictive futurity played in the development of AI?

International Politics

Why do countries go to war? What conditions foster international cooperation? How do alliances between countries function? How are countries affected by global trade and investment, and in turn how does the political economy of individual countries shape international conflict and cooperation? How do ideas and culture (including both positive ideas like human rights and negative ideas like racism) affect international politics? What role do individuals and groups play in shaping international politics? What explains the international response to the COVID-19 pandemic? Why isn’t there significant cooperation on climate change, and can a new global cooperation emerge? What issues have garnered international attention, and how has that shaped the countries’ cooperation? What causes terrorism? Is the proliferation of nuclear (or cyber) weapons a threat to peace, and if so, how should the world response? Does UN peacekeeping work?

In this course we will begin to grapple with these questions. We will use theories developed by philosophers, political scientists and policy analysts, and we will examine the historical roots of today’s problems, in order to explain and predict the patterns of international politics and the possibilities for change. Throughout the course, students will be encouraged to choose and develop their own theories to explain events.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of the semester, students will accomplish the following:


Demonstrate broad factual and causal knowledge of important current and historical issues in international relations.

Apply contending theories from the political science literature and the policy world to analyze, compare, and evaluate events and trends in international relations.

Assess the value of competing theories in explaining events.

Synthesize facts and arguments across cases in order to reason critically and argue creatively, through both oral discussions in section and written essays.
