Abstract

In this paper I briefly review the use of computer simulation in archaeology and argue that pedestrian modelling has the potential to overcome many of the problems associated with earlier simulation studies. I then introduce the MAGICAL simulation software, which was written to facilitate the use of multiagent simulation within a geographical information system. In the final part of the paper I describe the use of MAGICAL to study the evolution of cultural learning among early hominids.
