Study of Heritage and Identity

The study of heritage and identity within Cultural Historical Geography examines how people's culture, traditions, and history shape their sense of self and belonging to a place. It looks at landmarks, festivals, languages, and stories that develop over time and influence both individual and community identities. By understanding these connections, researchers can reveal how past events and cultural practices impact present-day lives and how communities respond to change, preserving their unique character while interacting with the wider world. Ultimately, this study helps us comprehend the relationship between people and their environments.
