<p>Xocolotl: More complete definition</p> <hr /> <div>Anthropology is a social science that studies [[human]]s from the perspective of their [[culture]]. This is different from disciplines such as [[psychology]], which uses the perspective of personality and cognition; or [[biology]], which focuses on the body.<br /> <br /> Anthropology is usually divided into four separate disciplines, which overlap each other to varying degrees. <br /> <br /> '''Cultural anthropology''' studies living societies. Methods of research take a whide variety of forms, ranging from living among a foreign people to digging through American trash cans. Cultural anthropologists are currently in great demand by international corporations and the Armed Forces.<br /> <br /> '''Archaeology''' studies extinct cultures. While it is popularly believed that most they focus on things such as [[neandertals]], most archaelogists are employed by local goverments and construction companies to identify [[American Indian]] remains.<br /> <br /> '''Linguistic anthropology''' studies languages and their development. This is a relatively new field.<br /> <br /> '''Physical anthropology''' studies non-human primates--chimpanzees, monkeys, etc. In many ways it is more akin to biology than to traditional anthropology. Much of its focus is on the musculature, skeletal structure, and neurology of primates.</div>

<p>Xocolotl: Added more in-depth information.</p> <hr /> <div>A pre-agrarian economy based upon scavengeing, hunting, and gathering resources. Such life styles tend to be very high-stress and unstable; as such, societies that utilize that sort of economy tend to be very small and primitive. Foragers must move frequently in order to find new resources; as such, they are unable to develop the things necessary for any sort of [[civilization]]: architecture, literacy, organized religion, etc.</div>

<p>Xocolotl: Improved grammar, clarity, and factual accuracy. Distinguished India (nation) from the Indian Sub-Continent.</p> <hr /> <div>The Republic of India is a nation located in south [[Asia]]. It spans from the Himalayas in the north to the Indian ocean. The name &quot;India&quot; came from the word &quot;Hindu&quot; which was used to describe the Sindhu river (now known as the Indus). It borders China, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. It had three wars with Pakistan over the disputed territory territory. India, Pakistan and China are now nuclear powers. Pakistan is now an US ally against terrorism. Although over 80% of Indians identify as Hindu, India does have the world's second largest Muslim population<br /> <br /> See [[World History Lecture Three]] for more information on Ancient India.</div>
