Anthropological study of the intersection of religion and science can be traced back to the late nineteenth century when “armchair” anthropologists were concerned with situating religion and science (along with magic) as developmental phases along a universal evolutionary scheme. Later scholars reacted against these models by placing greater emphasis on the simultaneous operation of religion and science within dynamic cultural systems. Attempts at a “science of religion” by approaching religion as a product of evolutionary influences on cognition characterize part of an emerging interdisciplinary field, while other researchers focus on the religious foundations and elements within scientific communities themselves. Through these studies, ethnographers have documented the creative ways in which people draw from both religious and scientific modes of thought and practice to construct unique cosmologies. Although the absolute separation of religion and science remains unclear, their integration in social life appears around the globe
