HSS! This image came from 'out back' of an abandoned vacation cottage at Elkmont, located in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
I was musing on my fascination with old abandoned places and came upon this definition and I decided that photography is my cultural anthropology.
Cultural anthropology is the comparative study of the manifold ways in which people make sense of the world around them.

People say that man is close to monkey... I know some of them who are closer than others.
On affirme que l'homme descend du singe... J'en connais certains qui sont descendus moins vite que d'autres.
The collection of General Pitt Rivers, some 22,000 items of anthropological importance donated to the University of Oxford in 1884 and grown on by them to about half a million items. Oh my word! this place is hard to describe, an Aladdin's Cave perhaps, a treasure store certainly. When he reopened it in 2009 after a refurbishment, the great Sir David Attenborough (national treasure himself!) said that he loved it because the emphasis is placed on the items, not the labels, it makes you look and wonder and work it out. I agree, though by the time we left my head felt overloaded. It is a shame that the landings are obscured by more displays but I guess there is a lot to fit into one room. Best viewed small as this is a very grainy image. With thanks to the Green Album who pointed me in the direction of this delight!
This students is an example of modern man or woman. They are in a very special category and apparently have the ability to change gender at will. A type of metamorphisis we assume.
The Atapuerca Mountains is an ancient karstic region of Spain, It contains several caves, where fossils and stone tools of the earliest known Hominins in West Europe have been found, belonging to the species Homo antecessor (or Homo erectus antecessor) and Homo heidelbergensis. The earliest hominids may have dated to 1.2 million years ago, representing the first in Western Europe. "The Archeological Site of Atapuerca" has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This is a magnificent replica of the headdress that the Aztec emperor Moctezuma presented to the conquistador Hernan Cortez in the year 1519. It is on display at the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. The original headdress was given as a sign of respect and perhaps in an effort to placate potential aggression. Cortes sent the headdress back to his regent, Charles V of Spain who was part of the royal Habsburg family based in present day Austria; and in the ensuing 500 years, the headdress was lost, re-discovered and altered in efforts of restoration. The original was made of quetzal and other colorful bird feathers with sewn-on gold detailing.The original is now in the Museum of Ethnology, Vienna, Austria and is a source of dispute between Austria and Mexico, as no similar pieces remain in Mexico.
