La práctica experimental en Antropología no difiere en esencia de la de otras ciencias. Consiste en reproducir, bajo condiciones controladas, un hecho natural previamente observado, con el objetivo de estudiar su causa y efecto. Cuando se considera al hombre inmerso en un ambiente bio-físico-sociocultural, se torna dificultoso establecer patrones de diferenciación debido a la multiplicidad de factores actuantes y sus probables interacciones. En este contexto, surgió la necesidad de incorporar la metodología experimental en los estudios antropológicos. En el presente trabajo se realiza una revisión histórica y actual del empleo del método experimental en Antropología Biológica. Se destacan los trabajos pioneros de Sherwood Washburn y Samuel Detwiler, realizados en anfibios, y los de Melvin Moss, en ratas, para estudiar el crecimiento craneano, entre otros. En Argentina, en particular, se reconoce a Héctor Pucciarelli como el responsable de incorporar dicha metodología en los estudios bioantropológicos en la década de los años 70 y de consolidar un grupo de trabajo y distintas líneas de investigación que continúan su desarrollo en la actualidad
