INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE - AN INTRODUCTION
Cultural anthropology is the scientific study of humans, human behavior, and societies. It includes norms, values, and the study of both past and present human cultures and societies. Architectural anthropology seeks to understand how architecture influences people by shaping them and sustaining social relations. Anthropology also studies physical, linguistic, cultural, and archaeological aspects of human beings and societies. It explores human evolution and analyzes modern cultures and languages to reconstruct past societies and civilizations.
