Hi!
I had never visited the first site that you showed, it seems to be a good site to find interesting stuff and information. I loved what was written under welcome to anthropology, I think it is very true.
The second site I had seen before, and it is, as you wrote, very interactive.
Bye.
Hi Maia, the websites you suggested seem very interesting and useful for those interested in anthropology. please consider the corrections I've made, because you tend you mix the use of verbs when writing.
