Cultural sphere theory

Japanese: 文化圏説 - ぶんかけんせつ
Cultural sphere theory
A cultural history theory put forward in the early 20th century by German and Austrian ethnologists. It attempted to reconstruct the unrecorded cultural history of humankind on a global scale by considering several cultural spheres from the spatial distribution of culture and setting several cultural layers from a chronological perspective. Representatives of this theory include W. Schmidt and L. Frobenius. It rapidly lost support after World War II.
