Abstract

This paper endeavors to identify the culture, civilization civic and antique or archaic through a comparative study. To achieve this end, not only have the views of researchers and historians been consulted but the fundamentals and principles of linguistics and cultural study have also been taken into account. Our scholars have not displayed a seriousness in distinguishing between culture and civilization in their work prior to this dissertation. They treated culture and civilization synonymous to one another on occasions and sometimes denoted the two by using a single term for both. Some writers used culture and other civilization to describe the same phenomenon and no one tried to explain distinct domains of the two. The writers of this particular piece have removed the ambiguity of the two phenomenon by delineating the limits and boundaries of culture and civilization with the help of qualitative study and content analysis. The study identifies the following major differences among the culture, civilization and the antique, while culture is the part of a whole called civilization, the former is generally used in a limited sense and latter in expensive meanings. The journey of civic starts with culture and finally culminates after travelling through centuries in to civilization, when a natural catastrophe wipes civilization off the face earth, it leaves behind many evidences of its existence which are called artifacts or antiquates.
