Culture on the Edge of Chaos
Nobody Knows the way of the Caribou”: Rangifer hunting at 45° North Latitude
On the Logic of Archaeological Inference: Early Formative Pottery and the Evolution of Mesoamerican Societies
The 2005 articles by Stoltman et al. and Flannery et al. to which Neff et al. (this issue) have responded are not an indictment of instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) but, rather, of the way Blomster et al. (2005) misuse it and of the hyperbolic culture-historical claims they have made from their INAA results. It has long been acknowledged that INAA leads not to sources but to chemical composition groups. Based on composition groups d…
Knowledge Learning and Social Swarms in Cultural Systems
In previous work it was observed that certain problem-solving phases emerged during the optimization process for a real-valued functional surface formed within a cones-world environment using a Cultural Algorithm. The Cultural Algorithm was configured using five knowledge sources in the belief space, and an Evolutionary Programming model for the population space. It turned out that the five knowledge sources exhibited a swarming behavior at the m…
The Impact of Raiding on Settlement Patterns in the Northern Valley of Oaxaca: An Approach Using Decision Trees
A growing body of data indicates that armed conflict played a role in the creation of complex societies such as chiefdoms and states (Wright 1984; Spencer 1998). For example, according to Wright (1977:382), "most ethnographically reported chiefdoms seem to be involved in constant warfare," and large chiefdoms grew by absorbing their weaker neighbors. Marcus and Flannery suggest that warfare was often used to create a state out of rival chiefdoms:…
