Anthropology

 

(Alien Skill, Science, Logic)

 

The study of humanity (Xeno-Anthropology is the study of alien humanoids). Paraphrasing from Wikipedia:

 

It is concerned with all humans at all times and with all dimensions of humanity. In principle, it is concerned with all institutions of all societies, but in practice anthropologists have tended to concentrate on the seemingly more "traditional" institutions, usages, and customs of non-Western, often tribal, societies.

 

Anthropology is distinguished from other social-science disciplines by its emphasis on cultural relativity, in-depth examination of context, and cross-cultural comparisons. Some anthropologists have utilized anthropological knowledge to frame cultural critiques.

 

Anthropology is methodologically diverse using both qualitative methods and quantitative methods. Ethnographies--intensive case studies based on field research-- have historically had a central place in the literature of the discipline.

 

In Zamani, it is a skill the aliens and non-local humanoids have. The only Anthropological skill sub-set in Zamani is Archaeology.
