Abstract
Ibn Khalduns insights in Chapter II of Muqaddimah, explore how nomadic societies pursuit of comfort and luxury challenges traditional perceptions. While Khalduns observations shed light on the contrasting traits of sedentary and Bedouin groups, emerging archeological evidence reveals active trade engagement and incorporation of luxury among nomads. Sites like Pazyryk exemplify this, showcasing how luxury items were woven into nomadic cultures. Khalduns concept of group feeling and the interplay between environment and social organization further enrich our understanding of nomadic unity and adaptation. Despite challenges in empirical verification, Khalduns insights remain a relevant lens to examine societies, shedding light on the complex relationship between survival and luxury.
