Educational anthropology is a new frontier discipline between pedagogy and anthropology, which uses the concepts, principles and methods of anthropology to study education. It permeates encyclopedias, draws lessons from various schools, and integrates anthropology, pedagogy, sociology, history, philosophy, culturology, biology and other related disciplines in one furnace. It advocates grasping the essence of modern education from the macro height of human development, breaks the old situation that education is limited to education, provides two new methods and new dimensions to comprehensively examine education and human development from the historical development of human beings, and promotes the renewal and modernization of traditional education.
