Modelling complex systems in Archaeology: general issues and first insights from the ModelAnSet project
Abstract : Complexity theory provides useful concepts for archaeological
issues related to the understanding of past societies and their environment.
More specifically, Agent-Based Modelling is a relevant tool to explore
scenarios and to test hypotheses about the impacts of complex socioenvironmental
interactions on the transformations of ancient settlement systems
evident in archaeological records. After a short historiography of complex
systems modelling in Archaeology, this paper focus on the mains issues
of archaeological simulation models. As a case study, we briefly present
the model under development within the ModelAnSet project supported by
UCAJEDI Complex Systems Academy of Excellence. Agent-Based Modelling
is used to explore the respective impacts of environmental and social factors
on the settlement pattern and dynamics during the Roman period in
South-Eastern France.
