==Sejarah singkat==
Modern cultural anthropology has its origins in, and developed in reaction to, 19th centurycentur "[[ethnology]]", which involves the organized comparison of human societies. Scholars like [[Edward Burnett Tylor|E.B. Tylor]] and [[James Frazer|J.G. Frazer]] in [[England]] worked mostly with materials collected by others – usually missionaries, traders, explorers, or colonial officials – this earned them their current sobriquet of "arm-chair anthropologists".
 
Ethnologists had a special interest in why people living in different parts of the world often had similar [[belief]]s and practices. In addressing this question, ethnologists in the 19th century divided into two schools of thought. Some, like [[Grafton Elliot Smith]], argued that different groups must somehow have learned from one another, however indirectly; in other words, they argued that cultural traits spread from one place to another, or "[[Diffusion (anthropology)|diffused]]".
