Usually a social reject who must be banished to a far-off place for multiple years under the pretense of understanding how the marginalized people of the Earth live and think. Unfortunate groups that are forced to tolerate cultural anthropologists living in their midst usually send the village idiot to distract the anthropologist for as long as possible.
