Definition:

Anthropology is the study of humans, past and present, encompassing their biology, culture, language, and social interactions. It seeks to understand the diversity of human societies, behaviors, and beliefs through research and analysis of various aspects of human life.

Anthropologists often conduct fieldwork to observe and interact with different cultures, examining how people live, communicate, and organize themselves.

By studying humanity from a holistic perspective, anthropology aims to shed light on the complexities of human existence and promote cross-cultural understanding.
