商品簡介
Technology as Human Social Tradition outlines a novel approach to studying variability and cumulative change in human technology?a research theme that spans both archaeology and anthropology.
Peter Jordan argues that human material culture is best understood as an expression of social tradition. Each artifact stands as an output of a distinctive operational sequence with specific choices made at each stage in its production. He also explores different material culture traditions that are propagated through social learning, factors that promote coherent lineages of tradition to form, and the extent to which these cultural lineages exhibit congruence with one another and with language history.
Drawing on the application of cultural transmission theory to empirical research, the book develops what Jordan describes as a descent with modification perspective on the technology of Northern Hemisphere hunter-gatherers. Case studies from indigenous societies in Northwest Siberia, the Pacific Northwest Coast, and Northern California provide cross-cultural insights related to the evolution of material culture traditions at different social and spatial scales.
Overall, this book promises new ways of exploring some of the primary factors that generate human cultural diversity, both in the deep past and through to the present.
