Anthropology (/ˌænθɹəˈpɒlədʒi/,
from
Greekἄνθρωπος,
anthrōpos, "human"; -λογία,
-logia) is the study of
humanity. Anthropology has origins in the
natural sciences, and the
humanities.
Ethnography is both one of its primary methods and
the text that is written as a result of the practice of
anthropology and its elements.
