anthropology of place

Anthropology of place explores how people experience, shape, and are connected to specific locations. It looks at how places influence identity, traditions, and social interactions, and how communities create meaning through their environment. This field considers not just physical geography but also cultural perceptions, memories, and stories tied to a place. It helps us understand the deep relationships between people and their surroundings, revealing how places are more than just physical spaces—they are integral to our cultural lives and personal histories.
