Remains College Essays Samples For Students

Anthropological and archaeological research has taken full advantage of technological progress in the past decades, and human remains have been able to answer many more questions about the origin of our species than science has ever been able to provide before. While exploring human past is an important scientific area, biological anthropology and archeology have not been devoid of ethical controversies. The motivations, methods and rights of the scientists over the remains have been often questioned by critics and opponents who have different views regarding the ways in which these artifacts should be treated.

The Fate of Greenland's Vikings by Dale Mackenzie Brown.

In 1721, Hans Egede, a Norwegian missionary discovered that the Norse were no longer inhabiting the two settlements that they had established around 1000 A.D. Since then there has been many debates on the cause of their disappearance and decline. For long, the theories about their disappearance centered around the oral traditions of the Inuits. The Inuit tradition held that the demise of the Norse was due to the contact between the Inuit and the Norse which was often aggressive (Seaver 1996, 119). In recent years however, owing to expanding archaeological findings and other limited documentary evidence there have ...

Abstract

Actions taken at the beginning of a crime scene investigation can have far-reaching implications in the resolution of the crime, apprehension of the suspects and prosecution in the court of law.

Cats have been living with us for thousands of years. As opposed to other domestic animals like cows and sheep that provide as with food and other raw materials, it has never been clear the main reason why human domesticated cats. Some schools of thought believe that cat was domesticated to help human eradicate rodents which were destroying crops. However, others believe that cats were domesticated just to be pets, to keep human company. This research will not major in the reason as to why cat was domesticated, but rather will focus on the origin of the domesticated ...

Introduction

A fossil is any substance that evidences a once-living organism (University of Arizona, 2016). As such, fossils evidence the ancient life forms which inhabited the earth long time ago and were preserved by a natural process. Most of the fossils are found in sedimentary rocks formed from the sediments of rivers, seas, and lakes. Some of these fossils are actual remains of living things such as bones, or events that happened in the past, for instance, the dinosaur footprints. However, it is ordinarily the hard parts of organisms that get preserved under the right conditions and the interaction of ...

Introduction to Mongolian Financial Institution System

Introduction
Following seven decades of communist rule, Mongolia adopted democracy in 1990, closely followed by a shift to a market economy (Wagner). The transition has been beset with turmoil, and the Mongolian financial system has undergone crises in ‘1994, 1998 and 1999’ (ADB), primarily due to the government’s predilection of interfering in the lending policies of banks and directing credit to poorly performing enterprises. More recently, the global financial crisis of 2008 and a drop in copper prices triggered another financial crisis in Mongolia, prompting the government into entering a standby arrangement with the IMF till 2010.

The use of marijuana has remained on the balance with different states making it legal for both medical and recreational reasons.

It remains critical to the understanding of users as well as potential businesspersons to follow the laws regarding the handling of marijuana laws. Given this, the federal legislation has always prohibited the use of marijuana with very few exemptions. There are often several challenges when it comes to licensure and legalization of marijuana. It has high potential for abuse ...

The Britons society and culture did not give a striking impression as to my expectations. The presence of a monarchical system of governance does not mean that the country in itself is the place where everybody wants to visit. They have done too much and are in the limelight for undertaking considerable efforts in the global challenges, but does that mean that they do not have an intriguing past? My views change from the first impression I had of it to the current opinion, I have which is as a result of the movies, books and scholarly materials I ...

Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has remained to be an unfinished agenda in the world today as halfway through the intended period when they were to be achieved not so much has been gained.

Science and technology are marching forward into the brave new world with increasing rapidity. The proverbial Moore’s Law, prophesying the doubling of the speed of computer chips every six months (Moore’s Law), remains true to this date. As a corollary, increased use of the computing power and consequent technology allows medical science to unravel mysteries hitherto opaque to man. The biggest mystery to man has always been the mystery of procreation. As with most things man did not understand to begin with, he gave procreation a divine status. Children were literally the gift of God. However, ...

Archaeology gives us a better understanding of humans’ past historical events. It provides us with details of how people lived, their routines, rituals, culture and society.

The quest for leadership and a good head of a group is enshrined in the various sets of virtues that Graham calls the underlying principles. Numerous aspects of leadership make one become a good leader as well as being considered a bad leader.

While it remains critical to the general character of the leader to stand out in any given role as a leader, the individual takes ...

Wabi (侘)1 refers to the ‘rustic beauty’ and this pertains to the things that have the ability retain the elegant charm despite the flaws or imperfections present on its surface. The Kanji character for wabi symbolizes ‘isolation’ through visual perspective; an object that is marred yet, it was because of the marred quality of the object that makes it beautiful and appealing even to the discerning eyes of the viewer. On the other hand, the character for sabi (寂)2 pertains to the intrinsic meanings of the object, such as its history. In this way, the concept of sabi can ...

BRICS effect on global capitalist economy

The debates about the increasing role of emerging economies became more vigorous since the global financial crisis that became a start for a new global framework with the developing countries surfacing as a major hub. The most attention is given to the economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and the South Africa (BRICS) that had demonstrated high growth during the last decade against the global recession. The future dominance of the BRICS may shift the economic center towards the multipolar model. Changes in the matrix of competitive forces (finance, resources, technology) lead to a decline in the economic, political ...

I. Company Overview
The apparel industry is a highly competitive and almost exclusively based on image. As fashion becomes "fast", i.e. designing and selling apparel becomes more for masses as opposed to a conventional haute couture model, established and emerging players alike are competing over an increasingly powerful market segment, namely Millennials, who continue to shape business across different industries. Forever 21 is one notable example of apparel companies competing, primarily, over Millennial customers. Forever 21, operating in seven countries in addition to Europe, is a notable example of an established apparel player adapting to continuous changes in apparel ...

Discrimination in the workplace environment acts as one of the challenges affecting performance. A review of recent statistics on matters associated with discrimination in the workplace setting indicates that the number of cases associated with discrimination on a wide range of areas is increasing significantly.

This paper addresses the issue of abortion as a societal concern. Evidently, abortion remains both an ethical and social policy issue not only in the United States but also the world society in general. Defined as the act of terminating a human pregnancy in deliberate terms, many people argue that the woman’s decision to abort is their right (Guttmacher Institute, 2016). However, being a social issue, other members of the society, specifically religious leaders, argue against abortion. For those against abortion, they say that it is only ethical not to terminate the child’s life as that may ...

Home ownership does not represent an equally realizable goal for all groups in the society, despite the fact that it is a very important investment that may secure a family’s future for generations to come. Although owning a home has been part of the American dream historically, not all groups in the society have had equal access to this privileged position as home owner. In reality, Whites are more likely than any other racial group to own ...

Happiness has almost always been associated with money. This is particularly a general belief in more urban areas in which amenities and conveniences are almost always purchased by money. The argument of whether money could buy happiness or not is perennial. However, meanings of both money and happiness change over years not only for communities across ages but also for individuals over different life phases. For supporters of moneyed happiness, so to speak, happiness – interpreted as enjoying what modern life has to offer including all consumables and even spiritual practices – cannot only be achieved without money but is, in ...

Bullying remains one of the most urgent problems for teenagers. It is not some kind of complications – rather a problem we are not able to solve for years, even decades! A phrase “all people are different” sounds like another cliché in this situation. The way things are at schools, for instance, hasn’t change since the middle of the last century. The world develops so rapidly that new technologies become outdated in days, however, people still haven’t learnt how to respect each other and understand that appearance or interests aren’t criteria for judging or even worse, humiliating ...

Despite the signing of the Proclamation of Emancipation a hundred years prior to MLK’s speech, black people still lived segregated and in oppression. It was MLK’s brave and courageous stance that empowered black people throughout America to begin the non-violent fight for what should have ...

The primary goal of this process is to set a target for the firm, build a plan for the organization, analyze data about staff members, train the company employees, and mentor them to fit in the enterprise. HRM can be traced back to the year 1950 when great scholars Drucker and McGregor saw that there is a need to have a vision and goal-directed activities in organizations. They also stressed that the management ...

Establishment of Jewish homeland in Palestine
Stability of the Middle East remains questionable up to nowadays. An important part of the Middle East conflict is the struggle for the control of Jerusalem between the Jews, Christians and Muslims.
In the field of International Politics, it can be considered to be a very deep-rooted conflict. It was considered, and remains to be, one of the most widely- and passionately-debated conflicts in the Middle East.

The concept of “whiteness” is, of course, silly on its face. “Pinkness,” or perhaps, “very light tanness” would be more accurate. Nevertheless, the term is deeply embedded into cultural discourse. “White privilege” is the phrase of the day. “White Man’s Burden” was the public face of the reasoning for British imperialism. White men (no women need apply in those bygone days) not only “could” govern their poor, benighted “colored” brethren better than they could govern themselves, it was an affirmative duty to bring superior culture and civilization to the savages.
In the history of the United States the ...

Airbnb: A Strategic Analysis
BACKGROUND
The hospitality business is changing. In contrast to a conventional model of corporate-controlled business model offering a broad range of hospitality services to consumers largely defined within limited geographical spreads, peer-to-peer hospitality enterprises are disrupting hospitality business into an innovative model. The peer-to-peer model cuts across different hospitality services but, for current purposes, main focus remains on accommodation services. Of all short-stay, peer-to-peer companies, Airbnb is probably most prominent and, for that matter, most controversial. Founded based on limited property offerings in specific areas ...

The article 2 of the Human Rights Act of 1998 is a fundamental provision that is usually invoked to safeguard the right to life of individuals and that which imposes the legal obligation of contracting states to take appropriate steps not only in refraining from taking life intentionally, but also to take the appropriate steps to safeguard life. This provision has become the controversy in many cases involving human rights torts, by virtue of the section 6 of the Act that provides a statutory cause of action against the public authorities or bodies.

Release on parole or a shortening of a prison sentence are both highly complex issues that need to be viewed from both a legal as well as humanitarian standpoint. While ‘imminent danger to society’ is an integral component in determining if parole should be granted to any convict, I believe that when the crime relates to sex offences, even more care and precaution is necessary. The option of early release should only come in question if and when there are very explicit mitigating circumstances, such as the criminal being afflicted by a mental disease that prompted the action, and ...

People can be blind to love, truth, or reality in general. The reason can be strong emotions or an intention to escape a traumatizing situation. At the same time, the outcomes of such blindness are usually tragic. Euripides was a master of creating dramatic plays that encapsulated the strongest emotions of a person by engaging them into the traumatizing actions and experiences. Particularly, the topic of blindness is particularly vividly represented in Euripides’s “Medea” (Euripides 17). She is overwhelmed with her frustration and anger on Jason’s betrayal and humiliation. In the swirl of a blind rage Medea ...

Furthermore, low level of awareness of condom use and HIV risk factors contribute to the high prevalence of HIV among MSM. Indeed, ...
