Educational anthropology is a sub field of anthropology and is widely associated with the pioneering work of George Spindler .

As education involves understandings of who we are, it is not surprising that the single most recognized dictum of educational anthropology is that the field is centrally concerned with cultural transmission. ref Comitas, L. and Dolgin, J. 1979.
