What is Forensic Anthropology?
"Forensic anthropology is the application of the science of physical anthropology to the legal process." A forensic anthropologist can also assist in the identification of deceased individuals whose remains are decomposed, burned, mutilated or otherwise unrecognizable. This involves detailed knowledge of osteology (skeletal anatomy and biology) to aid in the identification and cause of death of skeletal remains, as well as the recovery of remains using archaeological techniques.
Bones is an American crime drama television series that premiered on the Fox Network on September 13, 2005.
