On a wooded lot near the Tennessee River in Knoxville, Tennessee covering almost two acres, lies the Anthropology Research Facility (ARF), a unique laboratory that allows for research into human decomposition. e Anthropology Research Facility is part of the Forensic Anthropology Center (FAC) at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. is facility was the brainchild of William M.
