Journal ArticleDOI
A History of Archaeological Thought
Stuart Piggott,Bruce G. Trigger +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the relevance of archaeological history is discussed, including the origins of scientific archaeology, the imperial synthesis, and the development of modern archaeology in the 20th century.
Book
Entangled: An Archaeology of the Relationships between Humans and Things
TL;DR: In this article, Hodder used the quote from Gibson that an affordance points both ways, to the environment and to the observer, and showed how the maintenance of walls in the Yorkshire Dales depended on expert ideas about organic foods and recent collective nostalgia for a rural way of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lévy Flights in Dobe Ju/’hoansi Foraging Patterns
TL;DR: Data is analyzed on Ju/’hoansi hunter–gatherer foraging patterns and it is found that their movements between residence camps can be modeled as a Lévy flight, an optimal search pattern for scarce, randomly located targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral Ecology and Archaeology
TL;DR: Behavioral ecology is the study of adaptive behavior in relation to social and environmental circumstances and holds that the reproductive strategies and decision-making capacities of all living organisms—including humans—are shaped by natural selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiocarbon evidence for the Lateglacial human recolonisation of northern Europe
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the database of Lateglacial cultures involved in the recolonisation of northern Europe and proposed a general model of hunter-gatherer colonisation at a sub-continental scale.
