Culture often refers to the way of life of our fore fathers.In this sense it is often reduced to,and confused with, unchanging tradition.

Etc.
These lay concept do not constitute definition of culture. If u where asked to define culture you would probably say culture is the way of life of a people. This would be perfectly right except that many people dont know the magnitude and full implications of that statement
