The idea
Culture is learned human behavior associated with groups. A culture hearth is the historic location where a culture formed. The cultural landscape is a landscape produced by the interaction of physical and human inputs. Cultural ecology studies human adaptation to physical environments.
In practice
Material culture: a group's objects and things.
Where people slip
Unit 10's diffusion is how a hearth's culture travels.
