@86eaccbb: For publication purposes, the length of an essay in anthropology can vary depending on the specific journal or publication you are targeting. Typically, journal articles in anthropology range from around 6,000 to 10,000 words, including references and citations. However, it's important to note that different journals may have their own specific guidelines regarding word limits, so it's always a good idea to check the submission guidelines of the journal you are interested in. Is there a particular topic or journal you have in mind?
