Cultural Origins - Invidious

Cultural Origins

I'm a history graduate and anthropology nerd who believes that everyone can benefit from exploring social and cultural history and the different debates historians have had about them.

On this channel we explore social and cultural history, sometimes focusing on the historical origins or evolution of cultural practices and sometimes taking a look at the 'little people' (I.E. people other than the kings and queens or other 'great men') of history. I hope you enjoy your time here, and if you do, don't forget to subscribe, and if you want to support the channel further, check out my Patreon!
