Maps and Cultural Comparison LITERACY · 5TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Laying a culture map over a physical map shows how much of human difference follows from land and climate. Where a map of North American culture areas is placed over one of rainfall and vegetation, the boundaries line up closely: farming nations where rain and soil allowed it, hunting nations on the grasslands, fishing nations along salmon rivers. That correspondence is a hypothesis to test rather than a rule, because trade, migration, and choice also shaped what people did. Comparing cultures with maps means using the same categories for each — housing, food, government, trade — so the comparison is fair. It also means remembering that a map shows a single moment, while cultures changed continuously. Questions: 1 What does laying a culture map over a physical map show? 2 Why is that correspondence a hypothesis rather than a rule? 3 What makes a cultural comparison fair? www.littleactivity.com 5th Grade · Literacy
