It's been ancient,and so it defines the people.Once you meet a people the most probable betrayal could be the dressing or language as the case may be.

Pop culture, on the other hand which is the short for popular culture, has do to with set of  practices,ideas, beliefs, and appearance that are prevalent and widely accepted within mainstream or modern society at a given point in time. It includes aspects such as music, fashion, slang, and trends that capture the attention and interest of a large audience, particularly the younger generation.It’s not a static and it's ever-evolving, reflecting the collective consciousness of society.
