Q Why is kinship so important to anthropologists? How might the study of kinship be useful for research in fields of anthropology other than cultural anthropology?
Kinship is important for understanding the cultural aspect of a group or a society. According to Kottak, kinship is studied by the cultural anthropologists so that they can bring to us the activities within the society and gain more information about that cultural group (Kottak, 2017). It can be learned that how one relates to another and how they work or even how they prey with each other (Kottak, 2017). As Kottak said, that ethnographer anthropologists must analyze the kinship ties that bind the society together so that they can understand a social structure of the culture. This gives anthropologists to understand different cultures in the society.
