ANTHROPOLOGY DISCUSSION 1

In general, I’d like you to ponder how archaeological finds from Nabta Playa provide information about ancient cultural practices? For this activity, I want you to simply think of culture as “shared ideas.”

 

1. First, I would like you to find two examples of either artifacts or features; one example from Jordescka et al. 2013 and one example from Malville et al. 1998, that reflect cultural practices of any sort. You needn’t dwell too deeply on the details, just generally summarize the finds.

 

2. Then, comment on why your selections reflect shared ideas, and what those ideas might be.

 

Your post should be about 3-4 paragraphs long.
