Description:

The Lineage Bibliographic Index provides a research tool for those interested in the application of Darwinian theory in archaeology. Lineage provides a database of over 200 references pertaining to the work of archaeologists interested in the utility of Darwinian theory for explaining how and why particular kinds of cultural phenomena came to be. The database can be searched either by subject or author. Clicking on any of the "Subject Headings" will allow you to search for books and articles related to important concepts within Evolutionary Archaeology. Clicking on one of the "Author" links will provide you with a list of references for that researcher.

Lineage is maintained by Jeffrey Alvey. If you have any comments or suggested additions to the database please email Jeffrey at jsa3@msstate.edu. The Lineage database is hosted by the Cobb Institute of Archaeology at Mississippi State University.
