Some Reflections on Fifty Years in Biological Anthropology
Looking back over 50 years has tempted me to offer an overview of the changing intellectual scenery of the subject, even though some subjectivity is involved.The dominant figure intellectually in physical anthropology in America for more than 40 years was Earnest Albert Hooton.He was a remarkable man personally, offering his students all the virtues of charity, warmth, support, and a genuine friendliness.His failing lay at a professional level, w…

The Evolutionary Relationships of Two Populations
A multidisciplinary study of the Guaymi of western Panama was undertaken to confirm or disprove their apparent similarity to the Yanomama of southern Venezuela and northern Brazil, inferred from allele frequencies for six polymorphic loci studied in the Guaymi by Matson and colleagues in 1965. Gene frequencies were estimated from the present sample of 484, which is more than twice as large as the previous sample and appears to be completely indep…
Physical Anthropology in Australia Today
Infrastructures are material forms that allow for the possibility of exchange over space. They are the physical networks through which goods, ideas, waste, power, people, and finance are trafficked. In this article I trace the range of anthropological ...Read More

Roy Thomas Simmons 1906–1975
New technologies enable designers to create advanced visual representations of concepts (e.g., animations, renderings) early in the design process. However, it is not clear whether and how the properties of such concept representations affect the users’ understanding of the concept and the nature of the feedback they provide. To explore this we conducted an experiment with forty-eight participants. We manipulated the medium (a series of stills vs…
A Preliminary Report on New Research on Man-Land Relations in Aboriginal Australia
More Than 20 Years Ago (1953) research was published on the relationship between mean annual rainfall and the size of the domain occupied by Australian Aboriginal tribal groups. When the original series of 409 tribes was refined to a more homogeneous basic series of 123 tribes, in which all water resources were locally earned as rainfall, the coefficient of correlation between the two variables approached 0.81. This coefficient expressed a system…
A Basic Demographic Unit [and Comments and Reply]
In common with other patrilineal band societies, the Australian dialectical tribe is a nonpolitical product of the system of face-to-face interactions characteristic at this economic level. The components of the density of communication, explored in another place, explain the cellular nature of the relatively homogeneous linguistic communities which are recognized by the natives as tribal units. The optimum or equilibrium population for such dial…

Local Group Composition Among the Australian Aborigines
There has been a strong tendency among the younger members of the Sydney school of anthropology to rewrite the anthropology of the Australian Aborigines. Whereas most workers in Australia have contributed progressively toward the understanding of regularities within Aboriginal society, the Sydney workers have focused their attention upon apparent exceptions to the previously accepted uniformities. Particular stress has been placed upon the local …

Some Population Problems Involving Pleistocene Man
This research problem involves certain phases of the population dynamics of generalized hunting and collecting man who occupied all of Pleistocene time, part of the Recent, and has persisted in a few scattered parts of the world into modern days. Our particular concern is with the mode and rates of increase characterizing such preagricultural peoples until an equilibrium level, (determined primarily by environmental variables, and secondarily by …
