An anthropologist has just arrived at a new field site and feels overwhelmed with a creepy, profound feeling of alienation, of being without some of the most ordinary, trivial (and therefore basic) cues of his culture of origin. what term best describes what he is experiencing?

culture shock

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various sociologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the anthropologist seems to be experiencing what is known as culture shock. This (like mentioned in the question) is the feeling someone may get when they are dropped suddenly into an unfamiliar culture with a particular way of life or set of attitudes. This may make the individual feel disoriented or overwhelmed.
