A Susurrus Around the World

An Introduction

Hello there! My name is Keara, and I am participating in an Introduction to Cultural Anthropology class this semester, Fall 2013. As an end-of-the-year assignment, I've been commissioned by my professor to create a blog. Yay!

The prompt is this: We are to compare, contrast, and analyze the rites of passage for a handful of cultures. Thus, in the end I will have described six rites of passage for six cultures, two cultures for each of the following ceremonies: Coming of Age, Marriage, and Death.

I'm super excited, this is going to be a lot of fun. I am an Anthropology major, so any project that I can get my hands on that has to do with the study of humans makes me so very happy!

So, in conclusion to all of this, I hope that you get as much out of my little project as you can! And I hope you like it too!
