Nathan Goodale, assistant professor of anthropology, co-organized (with William Andrefsky Jr. of Washington State University) a symposium titled "Lithic Technological Systems: Evolutionary Approaches to Understanding Stone Tools as a Byproduct of Human Behavior," at the 74th Society for American Archaeology meeting.
Goodale's co-organizer was William Andrefsky Jr. of Washington State University. The symposium was comprised of many leading scholars in archaeology who utilize evolutionary theory to interpret past human behavior through stone tool analysis.
The participants included researchers from 18 academic institutions and a total of 26 authors. The symposium represents a significant departure from the traditional methodological approaches that lack a theoretical consideration of stone tool technology as a byproduct of human behavior.
