Cultural Anthropology:
Paper instructions:
this is the question:( you just need to answer one by one as follow)
1. Why would we not want to use modern food foragers as good examples of the way ancient foragers might have lived? Provide several reasons here.
2. Compare and contrast food foraging with pastoral life patterns. Name one specific example of a food foraging culture and one of a pastoral culture. (This is
another one of those questions that lends itself well to the chart method of answering.)
3. What specifically distinguishes horticulturalists from agriculturalists, particularly in terms of intent, scale, and technology employed by each? Excluding
the Hopi, name one specific horticultural society and one specific agricultural society, either from the text or DVDs. What do studies of Hopi cultivation techniques
reveal about the distinction (or lack of distinction) between agriculture and horticulture?
4. Discuss what is meant by cultural adaptation. Give one example.
and here is the requirement:
