Insects and culture

Witchetty grubs were prized as food by Australian aborigines.

Gold plaques embossed with winged bee goddesses, perhaps the Thriai, found at Camiros Rhodes, dated to the 7th century B.C.

Insects and culture includes all aspects of the relationships between insects and humans, such as their use as food (entomophagy), in medicine, in art, in music, in religion, and in mythology. Some of these aspects have variously been labelled Cultural entomology, dealing mostly with "advanced" societies, and Ethnoentomology, dealing mostly with "primitive" societies, though the distinction is weak and not based on theory. It explores the parallels, connections and influence of insects on human populations, and vice versa. It is rooted in anthropology and natural history, as well as entomology, the study of insects.
