I'm a big fan of the TV show "Bones" and want to know more about forensic anthropology. What is it?

Forensic Anthropology is the application of physical anthropology, or the study of human remains, in criminal investigations. It involves the examination of skeletal remains to determine age, sex, ancestry, cause and manner of death, and other information that can be used as evidence in court cases. The goal of forensic anthropology is to provide objective scientific data for use by law enforcement agencies in their investigation and prosecution of crimes.
