Professor of Anthropology Izumi Shimada, of Carbondale, flashes a smile for a portrait Monday, Aug. 28, 2017, at his office in Faner Hall. Shimada has been studying the Peruvian subculture, which he named the Sicans, for the past 38 years. “You have to learn how to take care of human remains,” Shimada said. The skull that Shimada is holding is a replica of a skull found while excavating in Peru that was 3-D printed at the Tokyo Metro Police Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan. (Brian Muñoz | @BrianMMunoz)
