    • Barbarian, a usually pejorative word for an uncivilized person
  • Indigenous peoples, non-Western groups whose history predates contact with Western culture
  • Primitive culture, a culture lacking modernity
  • Hunter-gatherer, a member of a society whose food is mostly procured directly from undomesticated sources
  • Band society, a comparatively simple form of human society
  • Tribe, a type of social organization distinct from states
