Abstract
Chile recognizes the existence of Anthropology, but has no formally trained anthropologists, and has no chairs or departments of Anthropology. Due to the existence of archaeologic material pertaining to a number of the higher middle American cultures in northern Chile, and the existence of aboriginal populations in Araucania and Fuegia, both Chileans and foreigners have long carried on desultory investigations in archaeology, ethnology, linguistics, and physical anthropology. This work has been highly sporadic in time, spotted in areal distribution, and uneven in quantity, quality, and content subject.
