| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mathematical modelling group (B02) had studied how modern humans expanded its range when archaic humans were present in Asia (Paleoasia) by using the method of modeling, analysis and simulation. We had developed and analyzed an ecocultural range expansion model, which assumes the interplay of cultural and population dynamics and ecological niche competition between modern and archaic humans. The analysis of the model had provided a hypothesis that explains how modern humans and Paleolithic technology had diffused into Europe and Asia. In order to perform mathematical analysis on archaeological database, we also developed several mathematical tools, including a new concept of "cultural spectrum". These methods will be applied to PaleoAsia DB, which has been collected by this project.
