New paper on spatially explicit modeling of prehistoric land use footprints
Mike Coughlan and Don Nelson have a new paper in the Journal of Archaeological Science. Highlights include:
- Spatially explicit models of prehistoric land use footprints using site type and location data.
- Fuzzy logic used to resolve chronological uncertainty in large, multi-year survey data.
- Historical contingency and surrounding landscape plays an important role in delayed return settlement systems.
- Reinforcing socioecological feedbacks likely influenced settlement in late prehistoric, delayed return economies.
