Indigenous Cultures and History

Cultural traits are not isolated facts but form a whole, and this is man. The individual and society must not be taken in their total involvement in a way that allows their intimate relationship to be seen. "In reality society and the individual are not antagonistic. The culture of society provides the raw material from which the individual makes his life... No individual can even reach the threshold of his potentialities without a culture in which he participates. Conversely, no civilization has in itself any element that, in the last analysis, is not the contribution of an individual.
