Instructions:
For our “Notes & Queries #4,” please connect ideas found in Chapter 10, 11, and 12 of our textbook. For each chapter, please choose two anthropological ideas and connect each idea with another one found in a different chapter (e.g., connect one idea from Chapter 10 to an idea from Chapter 11; another idea from Chapter 10 to an idea from Chapter 12; then an idea from Chapter 11 to an idea from Chapter 12). This means that you will be covering a total of six (6) ideas out of these three chapters.
Please kindly help me make each and every citation in BOLD letters and indicate which chapter/page number when you first introduce a concept in your writing. For instance, if you are introducing linguistic relativity (Chapter 2, page 24) then the citation in bold letter format will be sufficient. The assignment is like a mini-essay (so it is not a summary or re-type of your notes as the name of the assignment may suggests) and please cite our textbook page numbers when discussing each and every idea. At the end of your discussion, please also ask at least one question and bold your question based on the content of your writing (hence the “queries” part of the assignment).
Journal article: Please synthesize Shankar’s (2008) and Henze and Vanett’s (1993) work into your writing. They are required for this assignment be sure to cite specific page number(s) of these articles in your work.

Format:
Your “notes and queries” should follow the format of double-spaced, font size 12, Times New Roman and 1-inch margins all around (Top, Bottom, Right, and Left). You do not need to include your name or any date/course information since you will be uploading your work directly under your name. May you decide to include any information listed above, they should be listed in one single line on top of the page. For instance, the following is an example how you can include all relevant information in one single line (you are free to add or take out any information as long as it is limited to one single line):

I really need someone with strong paper writing skills with expertise in history and/or anthropology!
Write a minimum five-page double-spaced paper about the history of cannibalism in Fiji. The page count does not include the cover page and references section.
Look into the religious and/or cultural rituals behind the cannibalism, what tribes were doing it, the hierarchical dynamics, the weapons used, tactics used, etc. Include the typical who, what, when, where and how. Also include how it ended with European Chrsitian missionaries coming in and spreading Christianity.
There is a superstition about “curse islands”, because of the cannibalization of a Christian priest. You could talk a bit about that as well.
It must be in APA format.
This is an anthropology class that specializes in cannibalism, so it is perfectly okay if everything is detailed and graphic.
I will provide you with sources later, but feel free to add more sources, as needed for you.

Watch the video “The Ultimate Cash Crop: Your Children (Affluenza)” (1997) (below) and answer the questions.
Affluenza will expose you to the problem of overconsumption and its effects on the society and the environment. This video takes a hard, sometimes humorous look at the American passion for shopping, and how it leads to debt and stress for families, communities, the nation and the world. It also explores the strategies used by marketers to sell products to young people. It ultimately reveals the forces that have dramatically transformed us from a nation that prized thriftiness — with strong beliefs in “plain living and high thinking” — into the ultimate consumer society.
Succinctly answer the following questions in paragraph form:
1. What is Affluenza? Why is it perceived as a problem?
2. Symptom: Shopping Fever: In what sense is shopping therapy?
3. Symptom: Stress: Why does the consumer lifestyle tend to lead to a stressful life?
4. Symptom: Material Boys and Girls: Why are children so materialistic?
5. Symptom: A Rash of Bankruptcies: Credit cards—buy now, pay later: US 4% savings rate vs. Japanese 16%; more bankruptcies than college graduations. Why are these stats important?
6. Symptom: Social Scars: Explain how widening gap between rich and poor feeds consumerism and makes materialism an ideal of good life.
7. Symptom: Global Infection: how does globalization contribute to consumerism and what would be the environmental consequences of a global consumption boom?

6. Feder claims there are three underlying assumptions to Erich von Daniken’s Alien Theory. Discuss these three assumptions and provide at least one archaeological example and pseudo-archaeological interpretation of each. Using archaeological evidence from lecture and readings discuss why each example you have chosen does not support von Daniken’s assumptions.

Question:
