  It kind of depends how you define Latin America. South America is the continent that includes Brazil, which most people would consider part of "Latin America" but some don't. Almost everyone would include Mexico in North America to be part of Latin America, but as the lecture notes there are differences in definition. I also discuss the definitional issues here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/naN41NOpfMzgo84.html

  Great introduction, thanks for the sense of humor. I look forward to the rest of the lessons. I will now proceed to read the first chapter. As a clinical psychologist, and since a very early age, I have been pondering the question "what is normal for human beings", starting with anthropology, then paleo anthropology, archeology, ancient history, evolutionary psychology and the Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M. Auel. Fascination with this topic remains the same at 61 as it was at 14 and I believe this book will coincide with many of the ideas I have developed on my own throughout the years. Looking forward to getting started! Thank you!

  9:15 you speak on the naming of the America's with no mention of the Amerrisque mountains, the likely origin of the name "America" as the name America was used on maps describing the general location of Nicaragua at least 5 years before Columbus had finished his expeditions to the America's. The name America was erroneously attributed to Vespucci as Waldseemuller had no context or basis as to why the land was called America and attributed the name to Vespucci rather than the geographic feature on the map that was named America. Furthermore, newly discovered lands during this time never had the naming convention of "feminine form of the first name of the European explorer that was there first," typically locations were named after places in Europe, rulers, saints or God. If Amerigo Vespucci were truly the namesake for the America's the naming convention would insist that the continent be named Vesputia rather than America.

  Thank you for your comments, very interesting. I am definitely following our textbook amzn.to/4aQV7SK and conventional wisdom. From what I've been able to deduce, the idea that the Americas were named from the Amerrisque mountains was proposed over a century ago, but also debunked over a century ago: www.quora.com/Were-the-continent-s-America-named-after-the-Italian-explorer-Amerigo-Vespucci-or-after-the-Amerrique-mountains-in-Nicaragua. If you have more recent information or links to support, I'd be happy to think about it, but that's what I've found (not being an expert on this subject).

Gobebkli Tepe is built just after the abrupt end of the Pleistocene that was caused by The Taurid Meteor Stream known as The Younger Dryas Impacts Theory / Fact, on the pre-perihelion it seems to emanate from the Pleiades. Pillar 18 holds a Dragon (Not a Fox) in arm, wears a solar lions-cloth, and stands domineeringly upon seven birds in a row (The symbol of the Pleiades.), the advocate pillar 31 has a bucranium (The symbol of the Taurus Constellation.) on its chest, one half of the bones found on site were Auroch (Taurus), the two are surrounded by twelve constellation monoliths, and at a sister site is a grave with two bovine scapula (The location of the Pleiades in the Bull Constellation.) placed over it. Isis and Nefertiti each hold a Apis Bull scapula at the Pleiades, The Apis Bull is circled around the temple seven times, Tauroctony symbology places the blade at the Bull's scapula, Thor fishes for The World Encircling Serpent with a Bull's Head, The Thunderbird is from the star cluster, The Feathered Serpent is from the same nebula, The Rainbow Serpent is from the Pleiades, the Japanese Sun Goddess's warrior brother is from the Pleiades, the Greeks say this is where The First Fire From Heaven came from and The Throne of God (Which is very close to The Golden Gate of the Ecliptic.), same thing with the omnipotent of India where they still venerate the cow, Bullfighting kills the animal between the shoulder blades, etc... Temporally with Gobekli Tepe the meteor stream would have been a very conspicuous yearly meteor storm and people would gather there for Five Unlucky Days full of gloom and doom with expected clobbering once again which was The Festival of The Dead and if the Sun came up afterwards it was a Happy Ancient New Year which Halloween used to be and we still dress as the dead when The Halloween Fireballs (The Taurids) fall.

  @@LivingAnthropologically Well yes, I do equate gender with biological sex because that's the only coherent way of defining it. For example, if you propose that gender = the socially constructed roles and norms expected of men and women (what used to be called "gender roles and gender norms"), this would mean that at least some of the people who identify as women weren't women (if they don't adhere to those expectations), which is not workable with the rest of modern gender theory which effectively maintains that people are what they identify as.

• 
  @LivingAnthropologically8 ай бұрын

  I guess I don't see it like that. I'm not sure what you mean by modern gender theory--maybe you are arguing with a strawman or someone on a different website. Gender is exactly those socially-constructed roles and expectations. Gender varies cross-culturally and historically. But there's always a range of possibility within those roles and expectations, as well as very often some counter-possibilities. So someone who is biologically female, and identifies as a woman, may simply not conform to gender expectations (and may pay a penalty for that, see the video on kzread.info/dash/bejne/o6RruKaAgc-ymJc.html). Or they may be following an alternative within a range of expectations.

"Gender is exactly those socially-constructed roles and expectations." Okay then, the problem I highlighted remains. If someone were to identify as a woman while rejecting the roles and norms expected of women in their society, would you say that person was wrong about their own gender? "So someone who is biologically female, and identifies as a woman, may simply not conform to gender expectations" But if their gender is to be "woman", then according to your definition of "gender" they *must* conform to those expectations.
