What does forensic anthropology mean?

Forensic anthropology
Forensic anthropology is the application of the science of anthropology in a legal setting -- most often physical anthropology and human biology in criminal cases where the victim's remains are in the advanced stages of decomposition. A forensic physical anthropologist can assist in the identification of deceased individuals whose remains are decomposed, burned, mutilated or otherwise unrecognizable. The adjective "forensic" refers to the application of this subfield of science to a court of law. A broad definition of "forensic" anthropology includes forensic cultural anthropology or ethnology, forensic linguistics, and forensic archeology, indeed any and all anthropology applied in judicial settings, both criminal and civil.
