The concept of culture within the social sciences has had many definitions. At its core, culture refers to shared beliefs, customs, language, and values. We share our culture via our food, clothes, the tools we use, the objects we produce, the art we create, and the stories we tell.

Quote Source: The Anthropology of Religion, Magic, and Witchcraft, Third Edition, by Stein & Stein

We may go about our lives assuming that the ways we think, act, or believe are normal. However, there is a certain relativity surrounding what is indeed 'normal.' As we look at cultures around the world, we begin to see that our ways of life are just a few among countless permutations.

I encountered this quote when going through an anthropology textbook:

"It is often said that the aim of anthropology is to make the strange familiar and the familiar strange."
