Abstract

This chapter rounds off a suite of chapters (3, 7, 11 and 15) that have paused the chronological narrative to reflect on what Fison and Howitt’s discoveries have meant for anthropology. They have also alerted the reader to the different terminologies and formulations used in more recent times to describe the phenomena Fison and Howitt discussed in the era in which they lived, around a century and a half ago, when anthropology was barely taking it first steps.
