Subjects, , and Traditions Covered in eHRAF World Cultures & eHRAF

The following pages are lists with subjects, indigenous peoples, ethnic groups and traditions contained in Human Relations Area Files’ (HRAF) two online cross-cultural databases, eHRAF World Cultures and eHRAF Archaeology. eHRAF databases increase annually, with new cultures added in the spring.

If you are a researcher, use the lists to reference the subjects and cultures of your topic or for indexing research materials. If you are faculty who uses eHRAF for teaching, the lists serve as good handouts for students. If you are a librarian, use the lists to determine whether eHRAF matches research and teaching topics in social sciences, such as anthropology, sociology, psychology, history, ethnomedicine, gender and area studies. Feel free to share the lists or this handout with your colleagues, or anyone interested in cultural and ethnic diversity.

The Outline of Cultural Materials (OCM) is a vast subject index of all aspects of cultural and social life. In the eHRAF databases, HRAF trained anthropologists use the OCM subjects to index each and every paragraph in the over 700,000+ pages of ethnographic and archaeological documents in the eHRAF databases, including , journal articles and dissertations. It’s best to visualize the OCM subject-indexing system as the “summary” of a page, regardless of whether the text is in English, Spanish, or German.

The OCM subjects used in the eHRAF Advanced Search serve as useful finding tools. That’s because a search with OCM subjects goes beyond a keyword search and retrieves texts for concepts (e.g cooking), expressed with multiple words (e.g. broiling, grilling, frying).

Find more information about this unique subject-indexing system and the eHRAF databases on the Human Relations Area Files website at http://hraf.yale.edu.
