The Andean Indian tribe lives in Central America where the climate attends to change, depending on what area you’re in. In the lowlands in the forest is known for their heat, which could cause dry humanity, and when it rain it could cause a moist humanity. There typical weather for the year would be heat, rainy, wind, and just being cold in the winter.
The Zulu tribe physical adaption would have to be there
clothes, because in the winter if there is no warm, people could freeze to
death, so by doing so they make their clothes out of cow and goat skin. Not
only that when women get married they need to wear more clothes on the top
which is made out of the same animals, if not married they just where beads.
The Andean Indians had a great physical adaption, which are
there tools. If they didn’t have there tool hunting for food would be much
harder and starvation would increase. So
by having these creative tools they are able to hunt animal, even predators
that are bigger them. Well crops are good just meat can be better quality to
eat.
The Zulu tribe would have culture environmental stress, if
they have no religion. This would be a problem because a lot of tribes like the
Zulu, they all have a god that gives them strength and faith on a daily basis.
If there wasn’t any religion, people from the tribe would call themselves god,
and people would have to agree and have to do what they say, just things could
get ugly because not everyone would agree with that. Since there is a god, they
all believe in that one god and even make sacrifices, which are animals, for their
god. Religion is a huge part of any tribe.
The Andean Indians had a big thing for their tribe for there
cultural adaption, and that was working as a group. Everything in their village
was done with a group; everything hunted and built was as a group, which is
extremely important in a tribe. If they didn’t want to work as a group, just
imagine the things that wouldn’t get finished or even the things that would
fall apart. So by working as a group their tribe and village have stayed strong
through so many years.
The Zulu tribe I would describe them a just Africans, which
is nice and simple but with many meanings. Just how they are spiritual, very
hardworking, everyone has a job to fulfill in order to keep everything in
tacked and keep the surviving at a great rate, they are a survival tribe.
The Andean Indians, I would call them Indians, I know why
just Indians, even there are different types of Indians. Well when I say,
“Indians,” the description is: hunters, teamwork, and creativity. This tribe
was an amazing tribe for the things they create to stay alive but enjoy every
day, like it was there last.
The Zulu tribe also known to me as the Africans, which is in
so many word, hardworking, they will do whatever it took to make there village
the best not in a winning way but in a, “I will survive,” way. This tribe has
done whatever it took to, feed, builds, and worshiped others, like no other.
The Andeans Indians is well known as, “Indians,” for their
hunting, for food and survival and not forget their protection for their women
and children. They will do whatever it takes to make there village the great,
for just there villagers, I’m not sure if they would feel to comfortable with
different tribes coming in there territory.
If a anthropologist were to come to one of these tribe I
would strongly recommend, the Andeans because, how they work so hard together
and the fast paste hunting, it would keep an anthropologist going for
questions.

I found your choice of tools and clothes interesting, not quite biological but the fact they do affect homeostasis i give you props on that. clothes are essential because we have a pretty poor insulation layer with our natural hair. clothing can provide that crucial few degrees that can keep us alive. tools are something that separates us from most of the animal kingdom except primates, and of course our baseballs. they make it much easier to complete even the simplest of tasks try cutting down a tree without an axe or wedge. hazzah good post.
ReplyDeleteYou started off great with your descriptions of the environments, though there actually is a great deal of heat and radiation stress for the Zulu. Watch your use of the word "tribes". It means something specific and does not necessarily apply to either of these groups. "Population" or "culture" is a better substitute.
ReplyDeleteYour identification of physical adaptations are actually cultural (for which you are receive partial credit). Physical adaptations include anatomical structures and expressions that help them deal with environmental stress, such as skin color, hair color, body shape, eye color, metabolism, sweating pattern, etc.
The cultural adaptations don't address the natural environmental stresses. Religion is not a direct response to environmental stress, not like home structure or clothing would be. Working as a group is something all humans (and many non-human primates) do as well. This is not a unique pattern response to this environment.
The final summary asked you to compare the use of race to the use of adaptations in trying to understand a human population. Which approach does the best at describing and explaining a population?
