Archival anthropometry : an analysis of the anthropometric data of Native American children gathered by Franz Boas, 1888-1902Kirkpatrick, Kristin A. 30 November 2001 (has links)
Franz Boas collected anthropometric data on approximately 15,000 people
from over 200 Native American tribal groups between 1888 and 1902. Twelve
basic measurements were taken: standing height, shoulder height, height to digit
III, arm span, sitting height, shoulder width, head length and width, face height and
breadth, and nose height and breadth. At the turn of the century, Boas was unable
to efficiently analyze these data. With computers now commonplace, several
investigations of the adult anthropometric data have been undertaken in recent
years; however, analysis of the child anthropometric data has not been undertaken.
This study analyzes child anthropometric data from Western North
America, giving special emphasis to children on the Siletz and Klamath
Reservations. More specifically, this study investigates the occurrence of
morphological differences in Native American children as a result of living within
the reservation system. It is well known that environmental factors play a crucial
role in child growth and development, and the effect of those factors can be measured through anthropometry. Differences in the growth and development of
the children on each reservation can be related to their unique histories.
An investigation of the literature and records kept by the Bureau of Indian
Affairs reveals differing socioeconomic conditions on the Siletz and Klamath
Reservations. Both reservations failed agriculturally, but while many Klamath
became successful in cattle raising and logging, the Siletz were unable to fully enter
these lucrative occupations. Additionally, the unratified treaties of many Siletz
tribes left the reservation without adequate support from the government, while the
Klamath received rations and supplies as stipulated by their ratified treaty.
Descriptive statistics and growth distance curves reveal that the Klamath are
shorter than the total sample of Western North American Indians, and the Siletz,
particularly the males, are shorter than the Klamath. The shorter stature is due to
the proportionately shorter legs of the Siletz, a finding that is consistent with other
studies of populations living in depressed socioeconomic conditions. / Graduation date: 2002

Entre evolução e cultura : um estudo da ideia de história de Marshall Sahlins (1950-1980)Oliveira, Felipe Souza Leão de January 2017 (has links)
Nosso objetivo neste trabalho é analisarmos a construção e as transformações da ideia de história do antropólogo norte-americano Marshall Sahlins, entre as décadas de 1950 e 1980. Acreditamos que este período é importante pelo fato de encontrarmos nele os princípios de uma forma de pensar a história que continuará a dominar a obra de Sahlins nas décadas seguintes. Para analisarmos sua ideia de história, bem como suas transformações, interpretaremos os princípios teóricos que a define enquanto tal. Argumentaremos que Sahlins adotará duas ideias de história durante este período: uma que terá a palavra "evolução" como princípio teórico central e outra em que os termos "cultura" e "estrutura" serão seus princípios teóricos mais importantes. Estas ideias de história serão analisadas também no contexto da sociedade e das ideias que tiveram um papel central na vida intelectual de Sahlins. Defenderemos também que, neste contexto, as obras dos antropólogos Leslie White e Claude Lévi-Strauss terão uma grande importância. E esperamos, deste modo, dar duas contribuições: uma para a compreensão da ideia de história de Sahlins; e outra para o atual debate sobre a relação entre História e Antropologia. / Our objective in this work is to analyze the construction and the transformations of the idea of history of the American anthropologist Marshall Sahlins, between de decades of 1950 and 1980. We believe that this period is important because we can find in it the principles of a way of thinking about history that will continue to dominate Sahlins work in the following decades. In order to analyze his idea of history, as well as its transformations, we will interpret the theoretical principles that define it as such. We will argue that Sahlins will adopt two ideas of history during this period: one that will have the word "evolution" as its central theoretical principle and another where the words "culture" and "structure" will be its most important theoretical principles. These ideas of history will also be analyzed in the context of the society and the ideas that had a central role in Sahlins intellectual life. We will also defend that, in this context, the works of Leslie White and Claude Lévi-Strauss will have a great importance. And we hope, in this way, to give two contributions: one for the understanding of Sahlins idea of history; and another to the current debate about the relationship between History and Anthropology.
