Anthropology
Anthropology (from Greek: ἄνθρωπος ánthrōpos 'human being' and λόγος lógos 'doctrine'), as the doctrine or science of man and in this sense as the basic study of man, is today predominantly understood as natural scientific anthropology and conceives of man as a physical being in a physical environment. Biological anthropology attempts to understand the various biological characteristics of humans on the basis of evolutionary theory. Forensic anthropology is specifically used to solve crimes by establishing identity, providing ancestry reports, diagnosing age and the like. There are also areas of anthropology oriented towards the humanities or cultural sciences, such as philosophical anthropology, historical anthropology, cultural anthropology, psychological anthropology, theological anthropology, etc., as well as mixed forms, such as cybernetic anthropology.
