anthropology collections

Anthropology collections are organized groups of objects, artifacts, and materials gathered by anthropologists to study human cultures, history, and biological traits. These collections include tools, clothing, artwork, fossils, and more, providing valuable insights into how people lived, evolved, and interacted across different times and places. They serve as physical records that help researchers understand cultural diversity, social practices, and human development. Properly curated, these collections support ongoing research, education, and preservation of human heritage for future study.
