The Study of Man

The study of man, often called anthropology, explores human beings—our biology, cultures, languages, and history. It seeks to understand how humans have evolved physically and socially, how different societies develop, and what makes us unique and shared across various groups. Through research, anthropology reveals the diversity of human life and the common threads that connect us. It helps us appreciate our past, understand present behaviors, and address future challenges by analyzing human origins, societies, and cultural practices in a comprehensive way.
