Primitive Culture

Primitive Culture is the name given to those who live close to nature by those who believed in using the natural world solely for the purposes of getting rich. The acquisition of material wealth and the glorification of those who managed to become rich took man away from experiencing the feelings of living and into egotist thoughts of immortality. Therefore, the term 'primitive' has come to mean the exact opposite of its original intention in this modern world. As we realise how we affect the climate, nature and all the other species that live on this planet by our quest for 'immortality' we realise that Animism - understanding and respecting the breath of life - a foundamental feature of 'primitive culture, becomes more important and vital.
