Abstract
As a relatively new technology that has gone through several iterations in the last decade, virtual reality (VR) applications have been used in a plethora of activities pertaining to various sciences, including anthropology. In this paper, we expound a bibliometric analysis of the reviews and research articles regarding the use of VR applications in anthropology between 2010 and 2023. The analysed publications were obtained from the Scopus database, and Microsoft Excel and VOSViewer were used to analyse the data. Utilizing bibliometric methods, the analysis encompasses a thorough examination of scholarly publications, identifying and scrutinizing prominent journals, prolific authors, affiliated institutions, and key research themes within the realm of VR applications in anthropology. The objective is to provide a systematic and insightful overview of the evolution, current state, and emerging trends in the integration of VR within the anthropological discourse, shedding light on the interdisciplinary nature and impact of this innovative technology on anthropological research and practice.
