How Widespread is this Point of View?

I'm not asking what culture is, just how it got important.  I've heard a lot of people try to describe culture already, so don't need more tries at explaining.

How did culture get important? It always has been, as it provides the background cnavas on which we paint our lives if we live amongh other people in a form of organized society.

I am not sure where one would begin to answer that question, other than maybe in sociology 101, theology 101, anthropology 101, or political science 101 . . . all mixed together. :D
