Literate societies had a way to store and pass on ideas to future generations, building on the ideas from the past. As such, they developed at a much more rapid pace than the non-literate societies.
Well, pumpkin pie would be a non-example of Anthropology.
These "sciences", including history & psychology, are sometimes considered social sciences. Social science denotes a lack mathematical evidence, the lack of the scientific method, etc. Compare this to "natural sciences": Physics, chemistry, biology, etc. These have apparent connections to mathematical law, MUST follow the scientific method, and on. Hope that helps.
Pure anthropology refers to the theoretical and academic study of human societies and cultures without any practical applications or implications. It focuses on understanding human behavior, social structures, and cultural diversity through research and analysis. Pure anthropology is often contrasted with applied anthropology, which involves using anthropological knowledge to address real-world issues.
Marco Polo is named "the father of modern anthropology." Consider several scholars other than Marco Polo. Non-modern anthropology would be 1) description of other societies and their cultures without a theoretical framework or 2) consideration of "them" as an imperfect form of "us." Polo fits that description. Some historians of anthropology claim the title for Franz Boas because he was scientific in identifying issues and in analysis in the 1880s. Others object due to the high level of near pure description that Boas and his students used in documenting many endangered societies and practices. If you wish to take a risk, you may want to claim Boas' teacher Adolf Bastian. Bronislaw Malinowski and A. R. Radcliffe-Brown would be contenders as "fathers" for their development of functionalism in the early 20th century. Claude Lévi-Strauss would be a later option with his development of Structuralism in Anthropology in the 1940s, but that would require discounting the earlier anthropologists as pre-modern.

Sociology was developed in the middle of the 19th century in Europe due to the Industrial Revolution, travel, and the success of natural science. Anthropology came around the 400's BC in Ancient Greece due to the writings about humans and their organization in society.
Possibly the Inca Empire, although they were not quite non-literate. They had accounting systems consisting of knots and various colors called quipos. Scientists are trying to translate them and perhaps, in time, they will find out that the Inca actually had a type of literacy instead of mere counting.
Sedentary societies are characterized by permanent settlements where people engage in agriculture and animal husbandry, leading to surplus food production. Non-sedentary societies, such as hunter-gatherer or nomadic groups, rely on moving from place to place in search of resources. Sedentary societies tend to have more complex social structures, specialized labor, and larger populations compared to non-sedentary societies.

Someone who is knowledgeable in health issues. Of course, doctors, nurses, med techs, etc., fall into this category, but many non medical professionals are health literate, as well. People who take an active interest in health issues learn quite a lot about health, and become quite health literate, as well.
