A tribe, viewed historically or developmentally, consists of a social group existing before the development of, or outside of, states. Many anthropologists use the term to refer to societies organized largely on the basis of kinship, especially corporate descent groups (see clan and lineage). Some theorists hold that tribes represent a stage in social evolution intermediate between bands and states. Other theorists argue that tribes developed after, and must be understood in terms of their relationship to, states. The English word tribe occurs in 13th century Middle English literature as referring to one of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. The word is from Old French tribu, in turn from Latin tribus, referring to the original tripartite ethnic division of the Roman state Tities (Titienses), Ramnes (Ramnenses), and Luceres, corresponding, according to Varro, to the Latins, Sabines, and Etruscans respectively. The Ramnes were named after Romulus, leader of the Latins, Tities after Tatius, leader of the Sabines, and Luceres after Lucumo, leader of an Etruscan army that had assisted the Latins. According to Livy, the three tribes were in fact squadrons of knights, rather than ethnic divisions.

19. Lead Your Tribe. Key Points from the book, Tribes, We Need You to Lead Us</i>, by Seth Godin
September 11, 2009
I just finished reading the book Tribes, by Seth Godin. I found this book fascinating. It’s about how groups form into tribes and how tribes are leading the changes that are happening in our world. It’s also about the need for leaders to help tribes strengthen. (I purposely did not use the word grow, because size doesn’t necessarily mean better or stronger). A tribe is a group of people who stand together on a common issue or belief. The difference between a tribe and a crowd is that a tribe has leadership and a means for communicating. Seth spends quite a bit of time talking abou... (read more)

22. Your OldTattoo Can Be Erased By A Cosmetic Surgeon
September 10, 2009
The practice of cutting designs into skin is an ancient one. Sometimes a tattoo would mark a rite of passage, or make a tribe look more intimidating to their enemies during battle. There is evidence that goes back to the New Stone Age in Eurasia which is way back around 9500 BC. At first ashes were rubbed into the freshly cut design, but over the years color began to enhance the look. When healing of the wound was complete, the pattern was permanent.
As years passed tattoos spread to the west, where sailors discovered them on voyages to Polynesia. Deducing that tattoos would be an ideal w... (read more)
