), thought that possessing it would establish his authority over the tribe. The stool, however, was no mere throne。 it was a sacred relic (圣物 ) that contained the spirit of the tribe. It was so sacred that even the Ashanti chief would not sit upon it. Rather than give up the stool, the tribe hid it. British soldiers were ordered in, and many people were killed. However, this war and its tragic consequences could have been avoidable. The science of anthropology, the study of people, how they live and their customs and beliefs, began in the mid 1800s. At that time, anthropologists believed that human culture developed from lower to higher forms of society and technology. However, by the time of the governor’ s stupid mistake, those early beliefs had given way to the study and documentation of differences between cultures. Had the governor consulted an anthropologist, he would have had a much better chance of understanding the real meaning of the stool, and many lives could have been saved. Modern anthropologists study every level of society. One of their main goals is to uncover mon patterns of human behavior. To avoid mistakes like that made by the unfortunate British governor, people routinely seek the advice of anthropologists. For example, the Peace Corps send volunteers around the world to help people in unindustrialized countries learn how to improve their lives. This was a noble idea. Yet in the early years of the Peace Corps, most volunteers were inexperienced, and few bothered to learn the language of their assigned country prior to their arrival there. Today, thanks to anthropology, the Peace Corps has changed. Its volunteers are more experienced. They have some basic language training, and they have learned how to understand and show respect for the customs and beliefs of other nations.
