Traditional Society

A traditional society refers to a community characterized by long-standing customs, cultural practices, and social structures that have been passed down through generations. Typically, these societies rely on agriculture or subsistence farming, emphasize family and community ties, and maintain a strong respect for ancestral traditions. Social roles are often clearly defined, often based on age, gender, or lineage. Traditional societies may resist change, valuing stability and continuity, and often have a rich cultural heritage expressed through art, music, religion, and oral history. Overall, these societies reflect the values and norms established over many years.
