| Purpose: The purpose of this module is to introduce students to major themes in the study of human history and archaeology. By focusing on the archaeological evidence for early human migrations out of Africa, the adoption of agriculture, the development of early writing systems and the formation of early kingdoms and state societies, we explore the major cultural developments and adaptations that have shaped contemporary human society. |
