Where to Start

I am designing this website to be a something like a student's anthropology reference site of sorts, with definitions of terms, articles on the basics of anthropology, notes on famous anthropologists, and a list of excellent books. Anyone who needs to find something specific can simply enter their search term into the "Search" box on the left-hand side of any page.

But suppose you are just interested in learning a little about anthropology, or want to get a better idea of what anthropology is before you dive headlong into it. For that, I have a few beginning articles to help you on your way. I recommend reading them in this order, more or less, but until I have worked out the kinks of this website, you will have to either find each one on your own or come back to this list for the links. My apologies.

1. What is Anthropology?
2. What is "Culture"?
