Migration was embraced as a general phenomenon by cultural historical archaeologists in the Eastern Woodlands, subsequently rejected by processualists, and recently invoked again with greater frequency due to advances in both method and theory. However, challenges remain in regard to establishing temporal correlations between source and host regions and identifying the specific mechanisms of migration and their archaeological correlates. Bayesian modeling, in combination with insights from recent modeling of migration processes, supports the inference that migration was a causal factor for shifts in settlement observed in the archaeology of the Woodland period (ca. 1000 BC to AD 1050) cultures of the eastern Gulf Coast subregion.

东部林地考古中移民主义解释的历史和未来，采用墨西哥湾沿岸林地时期移民的综合模型

东部林地的文化历史考古学家普遍认为移民是一种普遍现象，后来被进程主义者拒绝，由于方法和理论的进步，移民最近被频繁引用。但是，在建立源区和宿主区之间的时间相关性以及确定具体的迁移机制及其考古相关性方面仍然存在挑战。贝叶斯模型与最近对迁移过程建模的见解相结合，支持以下推断：迁移是海湾东部沿海地区伍德兰时期（公元前1000年至公元1050年）文化考古中观察到的定居转移的因果关系次区域。
