In the article, "Emerging trends in rock-art research: hunter-gatherer culture, land and landscape" (2001), author M. Ross wrote: “By contextualizing rock art within the landscape and incorporating the dimensions of movement, sound, touch and other states of consciousness into our interpretations, we move closer and closer to recreating the world of the hunter-gatherers, and thereby closer and closer to understanding the messages they left behind. And perhaps, through the process of understanding these ancestral messages and their context, we may even adopt some of these contexts and dimensions to enliven and enrich our own modern culture.”
In line with the above quote from M. Ross, this Discussion will be a critical thinking exercise in three sections. First, I would like you to provide two different meaningful and logical arguments against a particular point of view. Second, I would like you to provide two different arguments for a particular point of view. Then third, provide your own opinion on which argument you personally agree with. So, for this Discussion, I would like you to provide two arguments against the value of studying hunter-gatherer cultures to enhance the understanding of technologically advanced cultures like our own (regardless of your own personal opinions), and I would like you to provide two arguments for the idea of studying hunter-gatherers to enhance the understanding of other cultures (again, regardless of your own personal opinions). After you finish your arguments, for and against, add your own personal ideas and which argument you favor. Please limit your discussions to differences in culture, as opposed to differences in race or ethnicity.
Part 1 of this Discussion: Against
Please list two arguments against the idea that understanding hunter-gatherers can enlighten the understanding of our culture and behavior, i.e., technology, worldview, art, morals, ethics, diet, dress and attire, relationships, child-rearing, knowledge/wisdom, etc. In other words, provide two different arguments that hunter-gatherers are too vastly different from other cultures to draw any meaningful correlations. You are welcome to focus on any aspect of culture that you believe is relevant, but make sure you provide a solid/logical argument to back up your point.
Part 2 of this Discussion: For
Please list two arguments for the idea that understanding hunter-gatherers can enlighten the understanding of our culture and behavior. In other words, provide two different arguments that a greater understanding of hunter-gatherers can, "enliven and enrich our own modern culture."
Part 3 of this Discussion: Your Opinion
After providing two arguments against – and two arguments for – the value of studying hunter-gatherers in relation to modern cultures, please provide your own opinion on the value of studying hunter-gatherers.
