Human Biogeography: principles and applications in the study of the human past

Since the 1970s, there has been an increased interest in biogeographic approaches to human studies. This paper explores theoretical and methodological aspects of biogeography and their applications in archaeology. We review concepts, objectives, classification systems, historical development and rel...

description Since the 1970s, there has been an increased interest in biogeographic approaches to human studies. This paper explores theoretical and methodological aspects of biogeography and their applications in archaeology. We review concepts, objectives, classification systems, historical development and relationships with other sciences as well as a brief description applications of biogeography in local archaeological research.We conclude that in the study of human distribution, human biogeography involves the interaction of complementary factors. Historic dispersal is the most adequate perspective to explain processes of human distribution because of scale and theoretical affinity. Local biogeographic approaches that explain processes ofhuman distribution with spatial models have had the greatest impact on impact in local archaeology.
