There is but one science, the science of history. Anthropology is the life science of human beings; the natural and cultural history of the species Homo sapiens. Studying "all" of something , the whole or holistically, systematically and objectively is scientific study and knowledge , because the truth must be the whole truth. So, to say anthropology is open to evidence of human endeavor from wherever it might be is to declare anthropology has a scientific approach to knowledge of the truth about human beings . We follow the motto of the poet Terrance: Nothing human is alien to anthropology , so to speak.
