Examples of Clovis culture in the following topics:
-
- Perhaps the most significant
civilization to develop in the Americas was the Clovis culture, which appeared
around 11,500 BCE (13,500 BP).
- A hallmark of the toolkit associated with the Clovis culture
is the distinctively shaped, fluted stone spear point, known as the Clovis
point.
- Nevertheless, Clovis people
are considered to be the ancestors of most of the indigenous cultures of the
Americas.
- Eventually, the Clovis culture was replaced by several more localized
regional cultures from the time of the Younger Dryas cold climate period
onward, about 12,000 years ago.
- Post-Clovis cultures include the Folsom
tradition, Gainey, Suwannee-Simpson, Plainview-Goshen, Cumberland, and
Redstone.
-
- In the 2000s, researchers sought to use
familiar tools to validate or reject established theories, such as the Clovis First / Single origin hypothesis.
- One of the earliest
identifiable cultures was the Clovis culture, with sites dating from some
13,000 years ago.
- The Clovis culture permeated much of North America and parts
of South America.
- It is not clear whether the Clovis people were one unified
tribe or whether there were many tribes related by common technology and belief.
- Some of these cultures developed innovative technology that encouraged cities and even empires.
-
- The Clovis culture is one of the earliest identifiable, with sites dating from 13,000 years ago.
- Examples include the Clovis culture and Folsom tradition groups.
- Examples include the Archaic Southwest, the Arctic small tool tradition, the Poverty Point culture, and the Chan-Chan culture in southern Chile.
- Examples include the Dorset culture, the Zapotec civilization, the Mimbres culture, and the Olmec, Woodland, and Mississippian cultures.
- Examples include the early Mayan and the Toltec cultures.
-
- The 496 conversion of Clovis I, pagan king of the Franks, saw the beginning of a steady rise of the Catholic faith in the West.
- Monasteries became major conduits of civilization, preserving craft and artistic skills while maintaining intellectual culture within their schools, scriptoria, and libraries.
- Beginning in the 5th century, a unique culture developed around the Irish Sea, consisting of what today would be called Wales and Ireland.
- Later, under Archbishop Theodore, the Anglo-Saxons enjoyed a golden age of culture and scholarship.
-
- He allied with the Franks by his marriage to Audofleda, sister of Clovis I, and married his own female relatives to princes or kings of the Visigoths, Vandals, and Burgundians.
- For much of his reign, Theoderic was the de facto king of the Visigoths as well, becoming regent for the infant Visigothic king, his grandson Amalaric, following the defeat of Alaric II by the Franks under Clovis in 507.
- Theoderic may have tried too hard to accommodate the various people under his dominion; indulging "Romans and Goths, Catholics and Arians, Latin and barbarian culture" resulted in the eventual failure of the Ostrogothic reign and the subsequent "end of Italy as the heartland of late antiquity."
-
- One surviving example from Reims, France depicts two scenes from the life of Saint Rémy and the Baptism of the Frankish king Clovis.
-
- Core culture is the underlying value that defines organizational identity through observable culture.
- Core and observable culture are two facets of the same organizational culture, with core culture being inward-facing and intrinsic and observable culture being more external and tangible (outward-facing).
- Core culture, as the name denotes, is the root of what observable culture will communicate to stakeholders.
- This is where observable culture begins to transform into core culture.
- Core culture has the same relationship with observable culture: core culture is created first, and ultimately drives the visible cultural aspects of the organization.
-
- Material culture consists in physical objects that humans make.
- People's relationship to and perception of objects are socially and culturally dependent.
- This view of culture, which came to dominate anthropology between World War I and World War II, implied that each culture was bounded and had to be understood as a whole, on its own terms.
- The result is a belief in cultural relativism, which suggests that there are no 'better' or 'worse' cultures, just different cultures .
- They constitute an increasingly significant part of our material culture.
-
- Outlining the way culture is assessed, the pros and cons of multiculturalism and how culture is transmitted is central to management.
- The merging of differing cultures presents a variety of implications, and requires extensive assessment and cross-cultural competencies for both individuals and businesses.
- Cultural assessment begins with awareness.
- Perceiving the varying different elements of culture and cultural differentiation, and identifying the way in which these differences impact our interactions allows for a comprehensive approach at integrating different cultures.
- Cultural transmission, or cultural learning, is the tendency of a society or culture to pass on new information and generate new norms.
-
- Cultural psychology seeks to understand how forces of society and culture influence individuals' thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
- Cultural psychology is the study of how psychological and behavioral tendencies are rooted and embedded within culture.
- The main tenet of cultural psychology is that mind and culture are inseparable and mutually constitutive, meaning that people are shaped by their culture and their culture is also shaped by them.
- Cultural psychology is often confused with cross-cultural psychology; however, it is distinct in that cross-cultural psychologists generally use culture as a means of testing the universality of psychological processes, rather than determining how local cultural practices shape psychological processes.
- So while a cross-cultural psychologist might ask whether Jean Piaget's stages of development are universal across a variety of cultures, a cultural psychologist would be interested in how the social practices of a particular set of cultures shape the development of cognitive processes in different ways.
