Anthropology is involved through scientists belonging to its sub-branches related to the ongoing debates in all scientific fields dealing with the subject and fulfills its duty in laying the foundations of the future while contributing to possible explanations with the establishment of the bridge between the past and the present. Perhaps the most important benefit of interdisciplinary studies is that it gives a wide range of perspectives to events and facts; With this aspect, we frequently encounter interdisciplinary studies. There are several approaches to the COVID -19 pandemic, which has become the common problem of the world today as a global disaster. From an anthropology perspective, it appears as a multidimensional pattern expressed by the concept of pandemic. In this study, pandemics in the past, underlying diseases, human migrations, factors affecting the rate of spread of outbreaks, cultural factors that caused the disease to become a global pandemic and the results of pandemics were discussed. With the studies on pandemics experienced in the past and the main approaches of anthropology, a conclusion was made on the possible balance sheet of the epidemic by establishing a cause-effect relationship. It is thought that pandemics, which are renewed by mutations, seen in a wide variety of geographical regions, spread across the continents and spread all over the world, and caused by viruses without population immunity, will be repeated as long as the world returns. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the socio-economic, cultural, financial and educational costs are minimized by taking the previous experiences into consideration in order to meet and overcome pandemics
