About Vladimir Markotic

Vladimir Markotic (July 16, 1920 - November 1994) was a Croatian-American anthropologist, archaeologist and cryptozoologist.

Biography Markotic was born in Banja Luka. He emigrated to the United States in 1947. He obtained his M.A. Anthropology from Indiana University Bloomington (1955) and a PhD in anthropology from Harvard University (1963). Dennett commented that "The Sasquatch and Other Unknown Hominoids is bad science and, taken as a whole, bad writing... Until some real evidence comes to light there is no reason for anyone to take Sasquatch promoters seriously, especially if this book represents their best effort." She concluded that the book is unsatisfying from the point of view of physical anthropology but is worth reading for providing insight into non-mainstream interpretations of hominid evolution.

Selected publications The Sasquatch and Other Unknown Hominoids (1984) The Vinča Culture (1984)
