This week Dr Mick Morrison (Flinders University) hosts the 115th Four Stone Hearth anthropology blogging carnival.
For the uninitiated, the Four Stone Hearth is a blog carnival that specializes in anthropology in the widest (American) sense of that word. Here, anthropology is the study of humankind, throughout all times and places, focussing primarily on four lines of research:
• archaeology
• socio-cultural anthropology
• bio-physical anthropology
• linguistic anthropology
Go to Mick's blog (http://mickmorrison.com/?p=666# ) to read his introduction and find links to interesting posts about archaeology/anthropology. Posts with a relevance to contemporary archaeology include a look at historically-themed slot machines at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, the power of symbols within a Christian religious community, and, er, one on space archaeology.
