Herman F.C.
ten Kate, the younger (7 February 1858 – 3 February 1931) was a Dutch anthropologist.
Ten Kate's anthropological knowledge gathered over several decades of travel was considered as "embryonically modern" attesting to his scientific stature.
He held the view that the science of anthropology of non-Western cultures provided insight into deficiencies in Western culture.
A linguist, ten Kate was fluent in eight languages.
He published articles and reviews in journals; his prodigious work covered publications under 150 titles.
He was a member of several expeditions, including the Hemenway Southwestern Archaeological Expedition.
