Ethnographic fieldwork is an essential work of the study of cultural anthropology. Anthropologists go 
anywhere to get information anything about common way of thinking and behavior of specific group of 
people. Ethnography is a part of anthropology that deals descriptively with specific culture.
In 1965, George Hicks assimilated the people lived in an Appalachian valley to figure out the way of their 
life. The attitude of a student should be an essential way of such studies. If Eskimo woman went to 
Macalester College, she should learn how to talk, observe the way of life carefully, understand for the new 
culture and behave as others do.
Human experience is another factor which ethnographers should consider. A group shares cultural 
behavior, cultural knowledge, and cultural artifacts. The author caught up a concept of reading and he 
realized it is consist of cultural knowledge, behavior and artifacts.
