It’s been too long since I’ve updated the big Anthropology Blogs 2013 list. Below are the additions, revisions, and new blogs, all added or revised back to the big list. Please let me know what I’m missing or got wrong! Also see the Anthropology Blogosphere 2013 post for a summary or grouping of anthropology blogs.
I should add that although I try to keep up with some archaeology blogs, if that is your thing you should go to the Archaeology Blogs Project to find 250+ blogs. If you are interested in adding your blog to the Academic Blog Project, see the links at Blogging: What is it Good For? And the American Anthropological Association is currently running a Social Media Survey.
Great to see the further growth of the anthropology blogosphere–as blogging veteran Daniel Lende powerfully comments, Anthropology: Growth and Relevance, Not Popularity.
