This volume of original chapters written by experts in the field offers a snapshot of how historical built spaces, past cultural landscapes, and archaeological distributions are currently being explored through computational social science. It focuses on the continuing importance of spatial and spatio-temporal pattern recognition in the archaeological record, considers more wholly model-based approaches that fix ideas and build theory, and addresses those applications where situated human experience and perception are a core interest. Reflecting the changes in computational technology over the past decade, the authors bring in examples from historic and prehistoric sites in Europe, Asia, and the Americas to demonstrate the variety of applications available to the contemporary researcher.
Andrew Bevan is a lecturer at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London, UK. He has active research interests in the social construction of value across widely ranging time periods and cultural contexts, with a particular focus on early societies in the Middle East and Mediterranean. He is author of Stone Vessels and Values in the Bronze Age Mediterranean (Cambridge, 2007). Mark Lake is Senior Lecturer at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London, UK and coordinator of the graduate programme in GIS and Spatial Analysis in Archaeology there. A specialist in GIS and computer simulation, he studies patterning in prehistoric field systems and models the origins of culture. He is author of several simulation programs, coeditor of Geographical Information Systems in Archaeology and of Simulating Change, and author of numerous research articles.
