The Evolution of Modern Humans in Southern Tanzania: A Landscape Archaeological Approach
-
- Author(s) / Creator(s)
-
SSHRC Awarded IG 2017: A landscape archaeological approach to studying early human occupation of the Iringa Region, Tanzania. Previous research in Iringa has revealed occupations from the critical period for the evolution of our species. This project's goal is to explain the data from the site within environmental, social, cultural and demographic models of the emergence of modern human behaviour both prior to and after the "Out of Africa 2" expansion. The archaeological research will also support a Tanzanian cultural heritage group to produce locally-appropriate poster exhibits and museum displays.
