A Cultural Niche Construction Theory of Initial Domestication (2011, background): “…History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC, USA e-mail: smithb@si.edu most recently, the diet breadth models of optimal foraging theory (e.g., Kennett and Winterhalder 2006; Piperno 2006, 2011), are based on a ‘‘unidirectional’’ definition of adaptation that was the consensus within…”
Evolutionary Ecology, Resource Depression, and Niche Construction Theory: Applications to Central California Hunter-Gatherers and Mimbres-Mogollon Agriculturalists (2010, methodology): “EE has been used fruitfully to help understand the origins and spread of agriculture in a variety of settings, with many examples incorporating an important role for niche construction (e.g., Barlow 2002; Gremillion 1996; Hard and Roney 2005; Kennett and Winterhalder 2006).”
