Please be aware that my philosophy in maintaining these pages is not to list every site with Anthropological information—that'd be far too much work and, more important, would merely duplicate efforts elsewhere. Rather, I'm trying to maintain pointers to a very few key sites where other people are doing just that: maintaining exhaustive lists.
