In this weeks video, we will be explaining not only the definition of pastoralism, but also how pastoralism gets studied by cultural anthropologists. Many people believe pastoralism is just the herding of animals for survival, but it is so much more than that!

One of my favorite anthropological concepts is the overlapping idea of transhumance, which involves peoples moving in relationship to changes in season, although such movements are not restricted to just those people who follow/herd livestock. Many groups of pastoralists have been studied by anthropologists; however, there are some groups that can be more easily connected with much scholarly literature. Among the most interesting, to me, have been: The Maasai people who depend upon cattle, but some groups of Maasai have been practicing agriculture for some time. Also, they are currently troubled by changing ideas about land ownership within their homelands. The Bakhtiari peoples of the Iranian highland. Historically their movement has been highly connected to seasonality; and, they have historically incorporated advanced horticulture and agriculture into their subsistence strategies. The Kirghiz and Wakhi peoples of Central Asia whose pastoralist practices are specifically adapted to a highland environment. In recent years they have been negatively impacted by the increasingly formal boundaries created and controlled by modern nation-states. The Sámi peoples of the Arctic regions of Finland, Norway, Russia, and Sweden. They have traditionally been thought of as reindeer herders; however, those groups practicing "pure" pastoralism are very few in number now. Unfortunately, one of the things I've learned about RU-vid is that if I start providing too many formatted article/book citations in a comment, then my comments begin being removed by the algorithm within seconds of posting them. So, I will just recommend using Google Scholar and signing up for a JSTOR account. One good article to start with, just to get pointed into the areas that you might most interesting, would be an article entitled "Nomadic Pastoralism," written by Rada and Neville Dyson-Hudson. Cheers, Alivia, and thanks for another great anthropology video!

Could you please Give some examples with each definition specifically with the Indian context And Other famous ones

@itcanbedonedollars3693 Год назад

Do you have any text/non-fiction books that look at pastoralism? How did you come to studying the topic? & likewise do you have any podcast recommendations? This was such a timely video. I am learning about agroecology & foodsystems atm from enviromental science, but using & designing some anthopology/ethnographic research.

@utsavghosh6495 Год назад

Hi Alivia, i loved the video. I also have a request, if you are interested could you please make a video on visual anthropology and what are the things that an individual can do independently. I saw your previous video on visual anthropology. I am asking this because i have a fine arts degree and i draw and sculpt.I am also pursuing my masters in anthropology. I would like your opinion and advice on how can I use my skill and what are the possible paths that i can look into. It does not have to be a job per se or something which would pay me from day one. I am looking for something that i could do and enjoy, is useful and maybe someday i can earn from it. Thank you.

Anthropology, in a sense, helps protect human existence. There are things that are considered non-normative and normative in society and anthropologists also help shape and define these categories.

I love mythology and folklore so which job in cultural anthropology can I do for mythology and folklore

@AliviaBrown Год назад

I'm actually not sure, but I'd be happy to investigate! I'd recommend doing some research on this side of cultural anthropology as well :) Maybe exploring Google scholar for some kinds of work anthropologists have done in this area to see some examples

Thanks for this one. Could you look at medical anthropology especially as it pertains to disability. I am currently on fieldwork looking at the intersection of gender and disability as it pertains to gender-based violence

Hello I am 14 years old, I have a dream to become an archaeologist. What can I do ? 🇻🇳

@AliviaBrown Год назад

Aw this is wonderful! I'd recommend trying to learn about it and read about it whenever you can in your free time. Eventually, it could be a good idea to start working or volunteering at museums an go from there!

@Matt-Diachronic_Anthropologist Год назад

I think volunteering at a museum is an excellent idea. It will also depend where you wish to study and practice. In many jurisdictions the thing that keeps archaeologists working as archaeologists is because there is a legal requirement to conduct archaeological investigations prior to terrain/viewshed modifying construction activities; however, this typically doesn't look anything like the formal excavations that most people have in mind. One great source of information about the different skill sets you will need to develop is the document that UNESCO has released recently, entitled "Competence Framework for Cultural Heritage Management: A Guide to the Essential Skills and Knowledge for Cultural Heritage Practitioners."

I've always been interested in homeless culture. They live a type of nomadic lifestyle much like pastoralist. There are different types as well. My good friend has been living in his car for over 10 years and has an interesting way of life.
