Free Stuff for Anthropology Students
Archaeology students will find the free downloadable ArchEd program to be a useful tool for drawing Harris matrices. These are used to keep track of complex stratigraphic relationships. The program runs on Win2000, XP or WinNT. It includes a nice redraw feature that allows you to update graphs as more stratigraphic relationships become known. http://www.ads.tuwien.ac.at/ArchEd/
Most anthropology students are also movie fans. The searchable Internet Movie Database allows you to search by stars, titles, dates, characters, plots, and other criteria, even quotes.
Organizational charts provide a quick view of any social or political organization. Download free software from Smartdraw. http://www.smartdraw.com/specials/orgchart.asp
