Anthropology 101, 6th Period

[the-ascended.livejournal.com]

Daniel really isn't looking his best today. He's coughing and sneezing and spluttering and pretty much looks like crap.

He really wishes that today could have been a holiday.

"Okay," he coughs. "Today I want to talk about some major names in physical anthropology."

He turns and writes on the board:

1. The Leakey Family
2. Franz Boaz
3. Pierre Paul Broca


"Now, obviously I'm not in any state to do much talking today, so it's up to you guys. From your reading even thought I've not given you a book list in character zomg, what can you tell me about any of these people. Why are we looking at them? What did they do that makes them part of our lesson?"

After another coughing fit towards the end of the class, he holds up his hand. "I'm going to set homework tonight. Choose any of these guys, and give me a hundred or so words on them. Pretty much what we've been talking about here. In for the next lesson, please."

"Did you know that Broca was condemmed as being a subversie figure and a corrupter of youth? Isn't that the coolest?" Blair bounced and checked his notes.

"He's mostly known for his research on different parts of the brain and discovering like localized areas of brain functions. He also started the first anthropological laboratory and published over 200 articles."
