When she\u2019s not digging up ancient civilizations, Cohen teaches several archaeology and anthropology classes at USU. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen\u2019s parents worked for the U.S. Embassy in Indonesia when she was born. This then led her to grow up in Indonesia, Switzerland, United States and Canada. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOn the island, there was only two incubators, so my parents flew to singapore to have me. I took my first flight when I was a week old. My parents live in D.C. now, but I moved around a lot. When you are in the foreign service, it happens a lot,\u201d Cohen said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen said she realized what she wanted to be when she grew up from a young age. She\u2019s been working since then to make that goal happen. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhen I was nine, I was living in Switzerland. One of my books I had was about an archaeologist in Pompeii, so I decided that&#8217;s what I wanted to be. I wasn&#8217;t quite sure what it was at the time but I knew wanted to do it,\u201d Cohen said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From there, Cohen went on to attend several universities. After attending Mcgill University, she lived in India working for a non profit. During her time there, Cohen said she came to make one of her more pivotal life decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After working in India for a while, Cohen was offered a fellowship to stay longer. She had to decide if she would continue working in India or pursue further education. She chose to apply for graduate school.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen said it was a difficult decision for her. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cI sometimes regret that,\u201d she said, \u201cit would\u2019ve set me up for a career in international development and foreign aid. Now I realize that it was a right decision for the time though.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once her education was completed, Cohen\u2019s career took her to work in Alabama. She began doing archaeologist work at a sight known as Moundsville. At this site, huge mounds indicated that in the past there were thousands of people living there. Cohen said this site is important because there is a lot of digging to be done to understand what people were doing there. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Along with Moundsville, Cohen journeyed to Western Mexico to work with the Purepecha people. Then, Cohen began working on a project in Honduras. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen, along with other colleagues were called in to look at data from a lidar scan that had been done over a section of the jungle. This scan is done from a plane and shoots lasers at the earth. It then recreates a bare earth model that can tell if there are structures hidden under years of jungle growth. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2015, Cohen was sent back with a group composed of media journalists, National Geographic, scientists and Honduran military to go on the ground and see what they could find.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe were there for 10 days to document if we found anything. We had a lot of TV cameras with us, which was interesting. I\u2019m not sure I could ever be a reality tv show star,\u201d Cohen said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen went on to tell how the first items were discovered. The group was trekking through the jungle when one of the camera men saw a stone carving poking out of the ground. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen said, \u201cEveryone started freaking out.\u201d They discovered 52 different stone vessels at the site. They worked to document them, and received funding from National Geographic the next year to return and excavate them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working in the jungle, there are surprises around every corner. Cohen had a few tales about the wildlife she encountered in the jungle. One day while she was excavating, she had what she described as a \u201cvery hairy\u201d tarantula pop up out of the ground. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of her other wildlife encounters didn\u2019t come from the ground, but from above. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMy colleagues and I were excavating, when all of the sudden there two monkeys over us making a lot of noise. Then we noticed some blood started dripping down,\u201d Cohen said. \u201cWe realized the monkey had just given birth. It was swinging its baby back and forth. We had no idea what was going on, but a literally monkey gave birth right over us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of all the artifacts Cohen has helped discovered, the most important to her isn\u2019t an artifact at all. For her, it\u2019s the knowledge that there were many people who came before her. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt is the idea that there were people living and adapting to these really harsh environments. These people were adapting and living there before Spanish and Europeans arrived,\u201d Cohen said. \u201cThey were thriving, and there were just so many people. Then, at least 90 percent were killed by the issues of colonialism. There is still so much to learn about them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally after all her time in Mexico, Honduras and other places, Dr.Cohen found her way to USU. Now, Cohen participates in research and long term teaching here at the university. Some of her classes include Archaeology of Latin America, World Archaeology and Biological Anthropology. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students that have taken classes with Cohen said she has inspired them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Christie Whipple, a global communications major, took the Archaeology of Latin America class. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cShe&#8217;s really good at teaching, especially in a small group. She really connected with her class. I respect her as a professor,\u201d Whipple said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen also enjoys the scenery of Cache Valley. She likes being near the mountains. She also is grateful for the opportunities that this school has given her and other students. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI like that there are many opportunities for undergrad research here. I went to a lot of big schools and felt I got lost during that process. At Utah State, there is a lot more help with that for students,\u201d Cohen said. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_22094573\" style=\"width: 394px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\">\t\t\t<div class=\"media-credit-container alignleft\"  style=\"max-width: 394px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22094573\" class=\"wp-image-22094573\" src=\"https:\/\/usustatesman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/annacohen_rimando-2-667x1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usustatesman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/annacohen_rimando-2-667x1000.jpg 667w, https:\/\/usustatesman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/annacohen_rimando-2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/usustatesman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/annacohen_rimando-2-335x503.jpg 335w, https:\/\/usustatesman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/annacohen_rimando-2-1050x1575.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><span class=\"media-credit\">Jason Rimando | The Utah Statesman<\/span>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<p id=\"caption-attachment-22094573\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Anna Cohen, research assistant professor at Utah State University for the Department of Sociology, Social Work, and Anthropology. She has been here at USU since 2016 after graduating with her PhD at the University of Washington.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bethany Budge, a history and anthropology major, is a research assistant with Cohen on a project at Utah State University. She said she enjoys the help Cohen has given her.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI like how she works with students to figure out the different puzzles that we are going through. She is willing to work together to see the various points of view to find a solution,\u201d Budge said. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cohen\u2019s life has taken her many places over the years. She said her \u00a0tough, open-minded, and complicated personality has led her to achieve many different things. She\u2019s learned to pick up some words in many different languages. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI speak Spanish and French. I can&#8217;t say I really speak others, I\u2019ve taken Portuguese, Hindi, a little German, my first language was Indonesian, and I\u2019ve learnt a little Hebrew. I\u2019m not conversational in any of those by any means though,\u201d Cohen said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One activity that Cohen has always liked to do is travel. She said she liked to travel just for fun and visit museums, restaurants and food trucks as well. It hasn\u2019t always been easy, but it&#8217;s been worth it for her. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe biggest success would be able to travel and sustain myself. It\u2019s not easy at all. I haven\u2019t had a lot of funds or money at certain parts, but being able to figure out strategies to get there is something that has been a success for me,\u201d Cohen said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014<\/span><\/i><a href=\"mailto:shelby.black@aggiemail.usu.edu\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shelby.black@aggiemail.usu.edu<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@shelbsterblack<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Anna Cohen, a professor of archaeology and anthropology at Utah State University, was born in Singapore, grew up around&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":877902,"featured_media":22094572,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,20,36],"tags":[131,7142,3437,7013,7156,2547,5424,45,7157],"class_list":["post-22094570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all","category-features","category-student-life","tag-aggies","tag-anna-cohen","tag-anthropology","tag-archaeology","tag-nat-geo","tag-professor","tag-shelby-black","tag-usu","tag-usu-aggie"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.6 -
