The masquerade tradition in Costa Rica originated from communities that would come together wearing traditional costumes to celebrate. In 1996, October 31st was established as the National Masquerade Day. During parades, people dress up as characters like "la muerte" and "el diablo" that represent cultural elements or folk stories. The origins of Masquerade day come from town carnivals held to raise funds for the church, where people enjoyed masks dancing and chasing others while wearing so feared masks.

This document discusses the religious dimensions of wampum for Indigenous traditions like the Iroquois, challenging conventional understandings of religion. It explores how wampum represented cosmological attributes and was used to record agreements and stories. For Europeans, wampum became the basis for the trans-Atlantic fur trade and the development of colonial America, with wampum factories on Long Island. The document examines how money came to take on religious aspects for modern societies and contrasts this with Indigenous views of wampum and the natural world. It calls for recognizing Indigenous peoples' cultural differences and voices at the international level.
Vacation in the Third Space: Chinese tourists travelling on a European Cruise...Chen Tian

This is a presentation I gave on 1 February 2018 at the Africa-China/China-Africa mobilities workshop at the University of Cologne. In "Vacation in the Third Space: Chinese tourists travelling on a European cruise to African islands", I ponder the issue of cross-cultural communication and understanding, drawing on the concept of Third Space (Bhabha, 1994). In the case presented, Chinese tourists, the Asian staff on the cruise ship, and residents of the islands visited (Mauritius, Seychelles, and the Reunion island) were able to create a Third Space and engage in genuine conversations, despite cultural differences and ignorance.

Flea markets attract a culturally diverse range of people selling goods that reflect their ethnic backgrounds. Vendors of different races and ethnicities set up booths to sell region-specific items, such as a Chinese woman selling porcelain or an African man selling tribal clothing. Understanding and embracing cultural diversity is important, as it gives people a better perspective on how different groups can coexist and form a community.

Self-government is an important goal for the Inuit people of Nunavut, but it is linked to other goals like land claims, cultural preservation, and economic development. While Indigenous peoples practiced self-governance historically, the Canadian government now offers a model of self-government that leaves the Inuit financially dependent on government and with little real autonomy or sovereignty. However, recent devolution plans provide hope to give Nunavut greater control over decision-making and resources in their region.

The craft industry, oral literature and language in the development of touris...Alexander Decker
油
This document summarizes a research paper that examines the role of crafts, oral literature, and language in tourism development in Ghana. It finds that these three areas are important for their economic value, information exchange, sharing of experiences, and reducing biases. However, lack of marketing outlets and product finishing pose major challenges. The document provides historical context on increased interest in Africa after independence, and how crafts, textiles, and traditional attire have helped change perceptions. It discusses how crafts, oral literature, and music are interrelated through their organization and manipulation of sounds to create aesthetic experiences, despite language barriers. This benefits tourism by showcasing Ghana's unique cultural expressions.
The document provides information about indigenous Australian populations, including Aboriginal Australians and Torres Strait Islanders. It notes that Aboriginal Australians have inhabited Australia for over 40,000 years, with many distinct linguistic and cultural groups. Their traditional culture was based around hunting and gathering. The document also discusses contemporary indigenous populations, languages, art forms like rock art and bark paintings, and musical traditions.
- Australian Aboriginal culture is one of the world's longest surviving cultures dating back at least 50,000 years. Aboriginal people lived semi-nomadic lifestyles in regional groups with their own languages and cultures.
- Aboriginal art has a history of over 30,000 years and includes body painting, rock art, bark paintings, and more which were used to mark territory, record history, and tell stories from the Dreamtime.
- Aboriginal culture and spirituality is closely tied to the land with Dreamtime stories explaining how the land and natural features were created by ancestral spirits. These stories continue to shape Aboriginal identity and culture.

Harn Diversity Project
Introduction
The city of Gainesville is home to a vast population of over one hundred thousand
people, yet with that large population comes a very high fraction of residents represented by only
two groups. The balance of races shows a heavy tilt towards Caucasians and African-Americans,
with almost ninety percent of people falling into those two categories and the majority of them
being in the former (Areavibes). Perhaps this has to do with Gainesville not being a particular
hub of travel, tourism or development (despite the constant construction seen around the city) but
rather a community based around a university. It is the college in this college-town, however,
that helps to strengthen the populations diversity.
While the Gainesville may not be all that diverse, the University of Florida assists in
bringing a broader range of different characteristics. People from all around the world are
represented on campus, with a slightly more balanced population at hand. The percentage of
Caucasians is lower and Hispanic/Latino people hold the second largest group at UF at
approximately twenty-two percent. Asian and African-American students represent two other
main ethnicities found on campus, with American Indian, Multi-race, Pacific Islander, and
unknown making up the rest of the population (Collegedata).

One of the greatest attributes of the University of Florida is its capacity to entertain the
interests of over all fifty thousand of its students. Other than the many different educational
routes that pertain to different aspects of diversity, there are over a thousand registered student
organizations and clubs available, many of which focusing on religion, heritage and culture
(Student Activities and Involvement). Another superb element of the university is its very own
Samuel P. Harn Museum of Art, which brings together artwork from around the world in order to
showcase different pieces of culture right here in Gainesville. The museum offers the
opportunity to let art-lovers, random passersby, and everyone that falls in between experience
fascinating collections from different time periods and distant locations. By doing this, one can
learn about different peoples and catch a glimpse into the lives of others far different from them.
One such collection is the Harn Museums African Collection, an assemblage of art
representative of the peoples of Sub-Saharan Africa, that is incredibly and beautifully different
from the culture here in Gainesville.
A Look Into African Art, History and Culture
African art history incorporates a wide variety of different peoples spread out over the
continent, and with those many peoples come many cultures. Throughout the course, many
topics discussed originate from the ancient history of Africa, starting with one of the oldest
pieces of art being found in South Africa.
The document provides information about the contributions of ancient Carthage and Hannibal Barca to world civilizations. It states that Carthage was one of the first major empires in Africa and continues to influence the world through military tactics. Hannibal was one of the greatest generals of the ancient world and led the Carthaginian army to several victories using innovative tactics like surrounding the enemy with cavalry and infantry. He is still studied today for his leadership and strategic abilities. The document also credits Carthage with inventing glass, sun dials, and perfumes, contributing technologies that allowed them to have global impact.
