description: "Robert Stewart Culin was an American ethnographer and author interested in games, art and dress. Culin played a major role in the development of ethnography, first concentrating his efforts on studying the Asian-Americans workers in Philadelphia. His first published works were \"The Practice of Medicine by the Chinese in America\" and \"China in America: A study in the social life of the Chinese in the eastern cities of the United States\", both dated 1887. He believed that similarity in gaming demonstrated similarity and contact among cultures across the world."
