Anthropology

The knowledge of human cultures, habits and customs. Unlike Streetwise (which covers only the culture and customs of the Street), or Social (which covers only what you should do in a given situation), Anthropology covers general customs and background of a culture. For example, with Streetwise, you know what alleys to avoid and what gangs are dangerous. With Social, you know the proper forms of address for a high ranking Japanese zaibatsu head. With Anthropology, you know that the customs of a N'Tanga tribesman require that a young man kill a lion in order to be accepted as an adult male.
