This regional course takes a four-field approach to the prehistory of Oceania, which includes Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia. |
We will examine and evaluate the concepts that have dominated
archaeological research in the area including:
island biogeography, migration and colonization, human impact on the environment, isolation, exchange, and trade, and the evolution of social complexity. |
