ANTH EXAM

Anth 363

Spring 2020

Midterm

Due Monday, May 4th before 11:55p

50 points

This exam is in three parts and is worth 50 points total. The first part consists of three of six short answer

questions. The second part consists of two of four short essays. The third part consists of one of two long

essays.

You may use your book and notes to answer the questions. You may ask me about any question you don’t

understand. You may discuss anything with your classmates, and you are also welcome to use the general

“Ask questions…” discussion board in D2L.

Under no circumstances is it acceptable to copy and paste lecture material into your exam answers. You

may certainly refer to course material, and even quote from the lecture material, as long as you indicate

that that is what you are doing; e.g. (Week 3 lecture notes) or (Week 3 slides).

If you quote from the text, please so indicate by providing a page number for the quoted, or closely

summarized material, e.g. (Bard, p. 53). If you choose to cite material from the assigned journal article,

note the author, date and page in the text where you are quoting or summarizing material, for example

(Anderson 1992:51) and then include the complete reference at the end of the text; for example;

Anderson, W.

1992 Badarian Burials: Evidence of Social Inequality in Middle Egypt During the Early Predynastic

Era. Journal of the American Research Center in Egypt, vol. 29, pp. 51-66.
