English to Greek translations [PRO] Anthropology | | English term or phrase: diffusionist | Ενώ σκέφτομαι το set piece, ας ρωτήσω και τούτο. Ο ίδιος μελετητής αναφέρεται στο "Greek obsession with the πρώτος ευρετής and the conviction that a specific thing or custom can have originated only in one place and at one time." Και στο σημείο αυτό κάνει παραπομπή σε άλλο μελετητή ο οποίος θεωρεί τον Ηρόδοτο a 'diffusionist'.
Για το diffusionism η Wikipedia (μέσω του FreeDictionary) δίνει:
Diffusionism is the theory about the development of cultures and technologies, particularly in ancient history. The theory holds that a given innovation will have been initiated within a specific culture, but that it would then 'diffuse' by various means from this starting point.
