AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Flannery ponders the implications of Reynolds computer simulation in Document 44, addressing the development of agriculture and culture change in general on a largely theoretical level, from a functional/adaptive perspective. There are scant references to hard data in reconstructing actual events. (General theoretical issues are indexed for THEORETICAL ORIENTATION IN RESEARCH AND ITS RESULTS [121]).
