Cultural macroevolution and the transmission of traits (2006, background): “Evolutionary archaeologists have been at the forefront of this work, studying artifact frequencies as extended phenotypes (sensu Dawkins(48)), subject to natural selection, drift and other evolutionary forces.(49) Using assemblages such as pottery,(30) textiles,(50) and basketry,(51) evolutionary ar”
Innovation and cultural transmission in the American Paleolithic: Phylogenetic analysis of eastern Paleoindian projectile-point classes (2014, methodology): “The choice of which characters to use was based on expectations as to which parts of a point would change most over time as a result of cultural transmission and thus create a strong phylogenetic signal (O’Brien et al., 2001).”
Towards a unified science of cultural evolution. (2006, methodology): “Hence O’Brien, Darwent and Lyman (2001) and O’Brien and Lyman (2003) have argued that it is also necessary to adopt the cladistic methods described above to reconstruct evolutionary lineages accurately.”
Branching, blending, and the evolution of cultural similarities and differences among human populations (2006, background): “…(1939) Neolithic pottery Collard and Shennan (2000) Californian Indian basketry Jordan and Shennan (2003) Eastern North American projectile points O’Brien et al.
