Transfer: UC, CSU • IGETC AREA 4A (Social & Behavioral Sciences) • Prerequisite: None. • Skills Advisory: Eligibility for English 1.
This course presents a cross-cultural survey of the position of men and women within an anthropological framework. It assesses, in a comparative fashion, the biological basis of sexual differentiation and the cultural interpretation of these differences through “gender roles.” Comparative materials from tribal, non-western, non-industrial, and western cultures will be used to illustrate the variety of gender roles and expectations. The course focuses on cultural institutions as fundamental in creating, defining, and reinforcing gender roles. Economics, politics, the arts, religion, kinship, world view, and other issues which influence choices, opportunities, and limitations tied to gender will be examined.

Transfer: UC, CSU • Prerequisite: None.
This section will be held for six weeks in the highlands of Ecuador. Students will excavate at the site of Pambamarca, located 1 hour north of Quito. The course will focus on the nature of Inca expansion in the 15th century, particularly an examination of social and political life both prior to and after the Inca conquest. The goal of this class is to train students in standard archaeological excavation techniques (i.e., data recovery, laboratory, and mapping procedures). The field experience is supplemented with numerous trips to local museums and points of cultural interest throughout the area.
