The Friends of the Paleolithic
Society aims to bring together graduate students and faculty with an interest
in evolutionary anthropology. It serves as a forum for discussion among
archaeologists, evolutionary biologists, physical anthropologists, geneticists,
geologists, geographers, and others. The society meets every so often at a bar,
other establishment of choice, or simply somewhere on campus. At times
discussions will revolve around articles of interest suggested by one of the
gang, other times we just hang out and have fun. One of our up and coming
favorites is lunch chez Dibble. These lunches will be held every Wednesday and
are open to anyone – stop by Harold’s office (4th floor in the
Anthro dept.) around 12ish and bring your favorite lunch munch. Possibilities
for the near future include organizing lectures, trips to ones held nearby,
visits to exhibits, and a veritable goat roast.
FOPS was first organized by a number of graduate students at the University of Arizona (one of which is our very own Harold Dibble) in the 80’s. Later it was picked up at Arizona State University from where it migrated east to the University of Pennsylvania.
