In other words, this was how anthropologists defined which of the following?1. megaband2. tribe3. chiefdom4. state

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is number 2. tribe.

Explanation:

The definition of the Inuit people being an assemblage of multiples bands connected by belief in a common ancestor is the definition for tribe. Tribes are a form of social organization in which bands (smaller groups of 5 to 80 people) are integrated, permanently or temporarily. Such integration may happen for several reasons, such as having a common belief, culture, descent, ideology, etc.
