ANTHROPOLOGY
• Often conjures up EXOTIC VISIONS
– Distant people, places, customs
• That’s only part of what cultural anthropology
is about. It’s about
– Examining humanity from every angle and looking
at how all aspects interrelate - HOLISTIC
APPROACH
– The common denominators of the human
experience, as well as the differences
• One person’s exotica, is another’s
humdrum (trash vs. treasure)
ANTHROPOLOGY IS
• The study of humanity
– All people, in all times, all places
• From our evolutionary origins millions of
years ago (5 - 7 m.y.a.)
• To today’s worldwide diversity of peoples and
cultures.
