SUMMARY:Conference: Advances in modelling past human ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Concept\nIn recent years\, there has been a steady increase in the number of anthropological and archaeological studies that look into the human-environment interactions and resource management practices of Indigenous and local populations (Sherjon et. al. 2015; Whitaker et al. 2023; Pisor and Jones 2021; Welch-Devine et al. 2020). Such works\, which often draw from the fields of historical ecology\, pyrogeography\, multi-species studies and climate ethnography\, have provided a wealth of new data on human experiences\, perceptions and adaptations to ecological change and novel insights into human-animal and human-plant interactions at a variety of spatial and temporal scales. At the same time\, there has been an increase in interdisciplinary eco-archaeological approaches that make best use of archaeological science methods to provide evidence of long- and short-term change in human ecosystems. These developments offer new opportunities for enriched approaches to computational modelling that better address important scientific challenges in the study of past human eco-dynamics (Kintigh et. al. 2014). \nThis workshop invites papers on archaeological computational models that seek to take fuller into account advancements shaping the current discourse in socio-ecological research. We are particularly interested in approaches to simulation modelling that gain insights from Indigenous and traditional ecological knowledge. We also encourage contributions that explore the socio-ecological dynamics of resource use\, depletion and renewal and in interdisciplinary eco-archaeological approaches that bring together ethnoarchaeology\, archaeological science methods\, and computational modelling. More broadly\, we invite works on computational modelling (e.g.\, simulations\, GIS-based models\, equation-based models\, agent-based models\, etc.) which look into: \n– the response of hunter-gatherer\, agropastoralist and urban populations to ecological change \n– anthropogenic impacts on environmental change in the long- and short-term\, at smaller and larger spatial scales \n– ecological sustainability and resilience in the past and present \n– theoretical and conceptual frameworks for socio-ecological simulations of past human behaviour that go beyond traditional models (e.g.\, optimal foraging theory) \n– technological advances in computational modelling of socio-ecological systems \nReferences\nKintigh\, Keith W.\, Jeffrey H.
