In what sense? No biological or forensic anthropologist in the US would or should use it anymore, IMO, as the use I'm familiar with is considered a derogatory and outdated term for racial classifications (along with Caucasoid and Negroid). A quick scan on Google Scholar shows a number of results that I would guess are not by US authors, so it might be more acceptable or still commonly used in other countries.

Most of the world isn't America and this may surprise you but the US isn't the centre of the universe nor the end all be all of everything.

What?! How shocking! This is completely new information to someone in a career devoted to biological and cultural diversity! You'll notice I never claimed otherwise. All I said was that no anthropologist I knew (alas, I can't know everyone) would use that term and why it's out of favor within American anthropology (alas, even anthropology tends to be less of an international academic discipline than it should be).
