Article Title：Explaining subsistence change in southern New Zealand using foraging theory models
Abstract：
New Zealand provides one of the earliest examples of foraging theory applications to archaeological situations (Anderson 1981). Since this landmark study; significant developments over the last twenty years have led to an increasing number of detailed analyses examining the effects of resources depression on human foraging. In particular, foraging theory analyses have become better at documenting resource depression and integrating butchery/transport studies into these analyses. Using the faunal data from the Shag River Mouth sites, I illustrate how these methodological advances have resulted in a more comprehensive understanding of the processes of subsistence change in southern New Zealand.
