Social Organizations

I know we discussed in class definitions of how people organize social groups so I thought I would give the Anthropological definition to help clarify things. Elman Service was a Cultural Anthropologist who earned his PhD from Colombia in 1951.

Bands : Small groups of related people; typically hunter-gatherers.

Tribes : Somewhat larger food-producing groups; no central control or strong heirarchy.

Chiefdoms : Larger groups with central control; redistribution of resources by chief; embedded rank and status differences

States or Civilizations : Centralized and institutionalized control.

  1. 5 years ago I had warts, I was treated with some liquid applied to the warts they continued to grow and spread... The next 2 doctors did laser surgery to remove them. 1 year after the surgery, they grew back close to where the 1st ones were' so I was finally told it was hpv. I have had it for very long time, I contract it from my cheated boyfriend and I found out he was also infected and I end up the relationship between us. the warts was so embarrasses because it started spreading all over I have be dealing with this things for very long time the last treatment I take was About 2 years ago I applied natural treatment from Dr onokun herbal cure, a week after applying the treatment all the warts was gone. it's now 2 years and some months I don't have single wart or any symptoms of hpv. wow"" it's great, Dr onokun has finally cured me.
