    Anthropology

    As a forensic anthropologist working on the “fox hollow murders” and examining the heavily fragmented and commingled remains that were found burned, different strategies and forensic methods were employed in recovering and identifying the victims. Some of the remains retrieved showed significant burns making it harder for forensic anthropologist to distinguish between the remains. Nonetheless, forensic anthropologists noted that there were two distinct types of states in which the remains were burned, a green state, and a dry state. The bones that were burned in a green states were easily recognized by the pronounced attachment of flesh to the bones and the fresh appearance of the remains, whereas the dry state didn’t have any flesh attached and was just bones (Ubelaker, 2008). Forensic anthropologist could also differentiate between the two types of burning states through the external changes that occurred to the bones as they were burned. In the green (fleshed) state, the bones displayed transverse fractures, had pronounced irregular longitudinal splitting along the bones, and considerable warping-which is bending and twisting of the bones to make it appear as though the bone was made of rubber and deformed intentionally (Ubelaker, 2008). However, remains burned in a dry state displayed none of these characteristics and produced less variation in fracture patterns and warping (Ubelaker, 2008).…

    The Argument Kipling was trying to make that its white man’s responsibility to guide and convey their culture on non white people. The main idea Kipling was talking about in his poem was that even though it may seem bad or annoying, European and other white people should go and educate other people even if they don’t want to be educated. His believe was that white man are superior any other race. He specifically talked about Africans being uncivilized. In lines 1 to 4 he said “Take up the white Man’s Burden-Send forth the best ye bread- Go bind your Sons to exile to serve your captives needs”. White man think Africans are completely relying on them to educate them. In lines 7 and 8 of his poem he described Africans as “Your New-caught, Sullen peoples/ Half-devil and half child”. , meaning that they were crazy and dumb. Kipling also talked about Africans being savage as well as ungrateful of the assist that they have been given. In line 33 to 36 he Writes “Take Up the White Man’s Burden- and reap his old reward-The blame of those ye better- The hate of those ye guard- The Cry of hosts ye humor.” He is basically in favor of imperialism…

    Progressivism Historiography

    The common thought about progressivism before the 1950s were that it was a movement by the common people to curb the excessive power of powerful people such as urban bosses, corporate moguls, and corrupt officials. However, when George Mowry wrote his Progressivism: Middle Class Disillusionment, he challenged the common idea that the progressives were middle class citizens and instead considered them to be a privileged elite group of businessmen and professionals. Mowry believed that this group was trying to recover their fading influence from the capitalist institutions that has been replacing them. When Gabriel Kolko published his Triumph of Conservatism in 1963 his also did not agree that the progressives were middle-class citizens; rather he saw them as corporate leaders and liberal political leaders who were in the end not focused on helping the workers but instead focused on using the government to protect their corporations from competition. Anne Firor Scott wrote that the true progressives during that era were women; although there were men who also did things during the progressive era, the majority of it was done by women but they were neglected. They wanted to reform the social values and the nature of community life. Between all three authors, they all made very good points but when it comes to constructing their arguments Mowry and Scott did a better job because they backed up their statements with other sources.…

    Do you believe that someone should be penalized, or pinned down, in society, or the system, just because there skin color is a certain color, or because they are a different gender, or maybe even because there too tall or to short?

    Example Historiography

    From 1848 to 1891, the government of the United States and its army were tasked to secure the nation’s expansion into newly acquired territories west of the Mississippi River. Even during the Civil War years, the western frontier and those citizens intending to settle those areas compelled attention and protection from the government and the army. Yet, the United States government never clearly formulated a doctrine for handling the population already living in the new territories, the American Indian tribes. A cohesive doctrine issued by the Government to manage Western expansion and Indian affairs, along with a professional, well-trained, unified army would have avoided the worst violence of the Indian wars.…
