Best international unis for anthropology?

I'd like to study abroad within the next 2 years and I'm trying to consider my possibilities. As for language/location I'm limited to English, Spanish, and I just started learning French. I'd like to stay away from cities like London (because of cost.) I've been looking mainly at British unis because they're ranked the higher....but which ones would be best for anthropology? Any Spanish-speaking unis?

The best universities for anthropology are Oxford, Cambridge, LSE (social anthropology only) and UCL.

Other good departments: St Andrews, Edinburgh, Durham, Queen's Belfast, Glasgow and Manchester.

Each anthropology department is different and will offer different courses, my advice is to look on their respective websites and see which dept best caters to your interests.
