QU Anthropology Takes Over DC!

This summer, Matt and I were lucky enough to assist Professor Ullinger at the National Museum of Natural History at the Smithsonian. The skeletons we examined were over 5,000 years old and from Jordan. It was amazing to see Anthropology in action!
 
 

We visited the National Museum of Natural History for two weeks to study bones excavated from Bab adh-Dhra’, an archaeological site in Jordan.  The data we collected will be used by undergraduates at QU to study health during the Early Bronze Age in Jordan.


Matt found out the occupational hazards of Anthropology.




When we had free time we were able to explore D.C.!


 
It was an unbelievable experience to be able to work on an interesting collection with wonderful people! ~Jirina
