Keywords:
cultural anthropology, Christianity, Islam, HinduismAbstract
Through the lens of cultural anthropology, we can observe that beliefs in sacred objects, a practice traceable back to the songs and daily lives of ancient cultures, persist today with subtle adaptations. This continuation of original beliefs, expressed through reverence for specific objects, is not limited to small religious groups. It also appears in major world religions like Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism, demonstrating its enduring influence on human spirituality.
