Biogeographical thinking in archaeology and anthropology permits social scientists to consider questions about the size, distribution, ecology and population structure of human groups without succumbing to the fallacies of biological determinism or the similarly naive and deterministic presumption that man is unique and beyond scientific scrutiny. A biogeographer's approach to ancient and modern man furthers investigation of the events and environmental circumstances, natural and man‐made, that play a role in the evolution of similarities and differences among human populations and among their cultures
