How do the authors define forensic archaeology and its scope? 2. How is forensic archaeology used to understand the eve

Please use the following questions as points of consideration when reading the case study 

1. How do the authors define forensic archaeology and its scope?

2. How is forensic archaeology used to understand the events in Colombia? Please focus on:

The ways forensic archaeology helps reconstruct past events (including the techniques used by archaeologists to find sites and to reconstruct the past)

The types of obstacles encountered among forensic archaeologists (that is, how do dismemberment                 processes, mass-graves, clandestine cemeteries, among others complicate the archaeologists work).

3. What are the roles of the state military and paramilitary forces in the human rights abuses that have unfolded  in Colombia?

4. In what ways are scientific procedures used to help identify the human remains and determine peoples           identities?

5. How might forensic archaeologists help families find a sense of closure to their traumas? Why is this important at individual and community/state levels?
