2. Area: Old World.*
3. Area: New World.*
4. Topical/method & theory.

2. Junior year: Anthropology 98xa, junior tutorial in Archaeology (half-course, fall term).
3. Thesis: None.
4. General Examination: None.
5. Other information:
1. Pass/Fail: Two half-courses may be taken Pass/Fail and counted toward concentration. These ordinarily include courses from the reading and related courses category. All anthropology tutorials are letter-graded.
2. Languages: The department itself has no language requirement. However, the importance of modern languages for research in all branches of anthropology cannot be too highly stressed. Concentrators who expect to do work in anthropology beyond the AB degree are most strongly urged to develop their language skills as undergraduates.
3. Statistics: Concentrators in Archaeology are encouraged to take courses in statistics and/or computer science. Competence in handling quantitative data is extremely important in anthropological research, and such competence is best obtained through formal training in statistics.
