| Yes it is. This type of subject matter is what I'm going to school for, under the guise of anthropogeography. Culture applies a filter on the way we view our land.
For example, the structure of the english language has verbs that can only written/spoke in tense. You cannot use a verb without tense. Since we speak in linear tounge we view the landscape much differently than, say, a Early American language that uses non-linear verbs and revolves around the relationship between two objects . English speakers look at a parcel of land and contemplate what it's good for. The Native American tribe culture looks at the same parcel of land and contemplates their relationship to it.
This is just one of thousands of examples. It's very holistic. |
