My Experience At The Old Stone Age

Culture can be divide into two main components as Tangible and intangible aspect. Tangible culture can be seen as monuments, ruins, and historical buildings which refers to the history, art, science or other culture preservation. The intangible culture is imperceptible such as knowledge, expression, and social norms that distinguish the identity, personality, and spirituality of one from another, which further influence one’s behavior, emotion, and the way of thinking. There are always culture similarities and differences between place to place, yet there are more differentiates between the western and eastern culture such as the United Kingdom and Taiwan. The culture differences can not only discover in life trivia but also can perceived easily

In the Old Stone Age (30,000 to 7000 BCE), individual small groups of hunters and gatherers led a nomadic existence rather than living in larger groups with other people. This lifestyle and the absence of domesticated animals limited the spread of disease. Most infections in this period occurred as a result of one of several distinct factors: trauma, zoonotic diseases, and animal diseases that spread to humans; or infections acquired by eating, being injured by, or having contact with wild animals and their excreta. In addition, some diseases would have been contracted from the soil, such as anaerobic bacteria that penetrate the skin, and tapeworms (Arnott 2008). The New Stone Age occurred in Europe and the Near East from approximately

Culture is much like a log cabin, individual logs put together make the cabin complete. The individual pieces alone are important but when they are together, they create something unique. The individual details in culture include the languages spoken, the daily customs, the multiple religions, the type of government, social classes if existent, history of the country, and geographical location. While each

Culture is a way of life inevitably intertwined within all civilizations since the beginning of human history. Handed down from one generation to the next, culture remains as a perpetually endless occurrence. Humanity has been involuntarily defining its regions, civilizations, and each its peoples respectively to each of the geographical locations in which the inhabitants were born. Prosperous and thriving throughout the centuries, all ways of life continue to grow and develop as multiple factors, such as climate change, war, natural disasters, politics, and religion come into play. Beliefs, arts, and customs are primary in defining culture, yet many other major cultural characteristics contribute to its definition as well. Literature, philosophy, ceramics, cuisine, and music are just a few more diversifying characteristics found throughout the many cultures of the world. The economy, preferably sustainable and easily maintained, in certain geographical locations also plays an undeniably vital role in how a culture is determined or developed. War, within a country, on its surrounding countries, or on a worldwide scale, can lead to a drastic change in

A way to recognize different culture is to look a different aspects of culture such as: their government, religion, technology, language, and their arts. People from around the world all have different ways of life and using those elements can help distinguish different cultures. But, the culture elements shouldn’t be the only way to define a culture, families, friends, education, etc. have a big part of describing people. But, cultures can change over time, like how Michel-Guillaume Jean de Crevecoeur's idea of an American in 1782 are very different from the current American.

The word "culture" derives from a French term, which in turn derives from the Latin "colere," which means to tend to the earth and grow, or cultivation and nurture. (Zimmerman 1) This can also lead to one concluding that culture changes as civilization is changed and advancements occur. I am culturally Arab. Specifically from around Jerusalem and many other farmer civilations. The cuisine, historical significance of the area, and it’s religions are some of the most distinct differences the region has culturally.

Culture is a common behaviour of the human, representing a group of common ideological. "Cultural difference" is the difference between the cultures of different countries, different nationalities, for

Throughout history, we have been able to learn about a people’s culture, their religion, and their way of life through the art they leave behind. Starting out in the Old Stone age, cave paintings at Lascaux, France gave us an insight into the life of a person in that era (pg. 20-21). Moving on in history we see that several cultures chose to depict important parts of their lives with mural paintings. During the period of Late Antiquity, we can see mural paintings in the Dura Europa synagogue of the third century. In the eighth century Mesoamerica, we glimpse a colorful mural from Mexico. In Japanese culture, we observe the Amida Buddha Triad mural from the eighth century as well. Lastly, and most recent in the fourteenth century, we look at the fresco painting of Giotto in late medieval Italy.

“How can you understand a regional or local culture? You go the books, to the stories, to the painting, the dance, the music, art. Because when you go to the political system, there is always a barrier. When you go to economic systems, there are misunderstandings. But when you go to the scope of a culture, you really start to understand.” – Paul Cohelo ~UN.org

What is culture? How do anthropologists define it? They study it, but defining it remains a controversial and difficult endeavor. In my opinion, culture defines an excessively broad category related to the human experience. I wrote my first definition as follows: “Culture is everything humans think, say, have, and do. It is a socially-defined set of “rules” and expectations that are implicitly nurtured from childhood. (or from one’s introduction to that culture)” This paper will expand upon this definition as I believe that this definition represents a valid and broad explanation of what culture is.

Culture is a complex concept that can be explained using various definitions. It refers to a community that understands the world in the same exact way, based on common experiences. It can include a group of people that are born into it, or can be defined by a national origin, race and gender. People can change to a certain culture by changing economic status or by moving to a new region. An individual may belong to two different cultures at once. While all cultures in the world share similar emotions, the forms of communication used between them vary to a considerable extent (DuPraw & Axner, n.d.).

Culture is defined as the characteristics and knowledge of a particular group of people, encompassing language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts (Zimmermann, 2017). Culture has five major characteristics. First, it is learned. It is not biological; we do not inherit it. Secondly, culture is shared. Because we share culture with other members of our group, we are able to act in appropriate ways as well as predict how others will act. Third, culture is based on symbols. A symbol is something that stands for something else. Symbols vary cross-culturally and are arbitrary therefore, they only have meaning when people in a culture agree on their use. Language, money and art are all symbols. Language is the most important symbolic component of culture. Fourth, culture is integrated. All aspects of a culture are related to one another and to truly understand a culture, one must learn about all of its parts, not only a few. Finally, culture is dynamic. This simply means that cultures interact and change. All cultures share these basic features (chapter nine).

Culture is not only a reflection of current social phenomena, but also is a long period of accumulation and the formation of the creation and development of the historical heritage, such as religions, beliefs, lifestyles, values, and so on. Therefore, different cultural backgrounds will

What defines culture? According to dictionary.reference.com culture is the behaviors and beliefs characteristic of a particular social, ethnic, or age group. The quality in a person or society that arises from a concern for what is regarded as excellent in arts, letters, manners, scholarly pursuits etc. (“Culture” Dictionary.reference.com/browse/culture). People refer to culture as a way of life of a group of people. In the early 16th century, the word culture came about with a suggestion to cultivating land or “tilling” land. People for the most part take their culture, or way of life, very seriously. Researching the culture of another country is essential in order to learn and understand appropriate behavior in a country that may

Culture, even in the twenty first century, has numerous denotations. In various parts of the world, it has been and is still considered to be important for the development of civilization and of people’s
