Research 1

Choose any ethnographically modern society (a group in which anthropologists have/could have conducted ethnographic studies) from anywhere in the world.  The society needs to be an ethnic group and fairly homogeneous; you are not researching all citizens of a nation-state/country.  Carry out literature research outside of class, focusing on language, subsistence strategy (foraging, pastoralism, horticulture, agriculture), and political organization (band, tribe, chiefdom, or state).
Can make it into a PowerPoint
