- mkramlich 17y agoI'd argue that the act of making such guesses, ideally based on some education and insight, are at the heart of science. A professional anthropologist may or may not have any more education in the relevant areas, but I can imagine lots of cases where they might not have as much insight or creativity or natural genius as some particular non-anthropologist.
