Oceanic Anthropology

Oceanic Anthropology is the study of the cultures, societies, and histories of the peoples living in Oceania, including islands in the Pacific such as Polynesia, Melanesia, and Micronesia. It explores how communities adapt to island environments, their social structures, traditions, languages, and belief systems. By examining these diverse societies, Oceanic Anthropology seeks to understand their unique ways of life, how they maintain their identities, and how they interact with their surroundings and each other. It combines fieldwork, history, and cultural analysis to provide a comprehensive picture of Oceanic peoples and their world.
