UNLV Anthropology

Gabriella and her students on their GIS poster presentation! 🌍

UNLV occupies the traditional homelands of the Nuwuvi (Southern Paiute) peoples. We wish to acknowledge and honor the Indigenous communities and offer gratitude for the land itself, those who have stewarded it for generations, and the opportunity to study, learn, work, and be in community with this land.

Luis Orozco-Macial presented a talk "Analyzing Alternative Approaches to Aiding the Homelessness in Las Vegas"

Chloe Manderson presented a poster "DUNE: An Analysis of the Effects of Desert Formation Processes on the Preservation of Roasting Pits in the Valley of Fire."

Ethan Williams presented a poster "Analysis of Obsidian Consumption in a Late Classic Maya Household, Palenque, Chiapas Mexico (600 - 800 CE)"

This course will introduce students to Geographical Information Systems (GIS) fundamentals, focusing on social sciences and humanities applications. Students will learn to use GIS software (ESRI´s ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Online) to display, analyze, and communicate spatial information. In particular, this course will present and discuss its potential applications in research and professional settings within the humanities and social sciences, including population data mapping, historical mapping, and territory mapping.
