The purpose of this assignment is to practice creating research questions and hypotheses using multiple sources of data. In studying the history of health, we rely almost entirely on inductive reasoning, bringing together a range of evidence to create the best set of explanations. Hypotheses are used to lay out several explanations so they can be tested systematically against the evidence. In this assignment, you will pretend to be a bioarchaeologist hired to generate good hypotheses for a museum seeking to learn more about the history of health in Britain.
