I had used my archaeology stamps before so I looked for those with an anthropological theme this week. It was not as easy as I thought it would be.
However I found something from Australia and Zambia that fit the bill.

| Australia - Aboriginal Grave Posts (1971) |
These are set up at a grave in memory and honour of the Dead, Bathurst and Melville Islands, Northern Territory.
The first definitive issue in Zambia on 24 October 1964 had a series of stamps depicting ancient and modern facets of Zambian life including this masked dancer.

| Zambia - Chinyau Dancer |
I'm disappointed that I missed the Great Britain stamp showing Mary Leakey but I can show you another female anthropologist instead.

| USA - Margaret Mead, anthropologist |
This stamp was part of the Celebrate the Century Series - 1920s.
