Antrhopology.

According to Webster, M., "The word anthropology dates back to the late 16th century, but it was not until the 19th century that it was applied to the academic discipline that now bears its name. In the United States, this field of study is typically divided into four distinct branches: physical (or biological) anthropology, archaeology, cultural (or social) anthropology, and linguistic anthropology". My focus will be on the cultural (or social) anthropology

This will be a study of a Xhosa man, his origin, nature, ancestors through his time from an infant to manhood. I will focus on his culture, his environmental and social relations that shape up his character to become a productive member of his community.
