Recent advances in archaeogenomics have granted access to previously unavailable biological information with the potential to further our understanding of past social dynamics at a range of scales. However, to properly integrate these data within archaeological narratives, new methodological and theoretical tools are required. Effort must be put into finding new methods for weaving together different datasets where material culture and archaeogenomic data are both constitutive elements. This is true on a small scale, when we study relationships at the individual level, and at a larger scale when we deal with social and population dynamics. Specifically, in the study of kinship systems, it is essential to contextualize and make sense of biological relatedness through social relations, which, in archaeology, is achieved by using material culture as a proxy. In this paper, we propose a Network Science framework to integrate archaeogenomic data and material culture at an intra-site scale to study biological relatedness and social organization at the Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük. Methodologically, we propose the use of network variance to investigate the association between biological relatedness and material culture within networks of houses. This approach allows us to observe how material culture similarity between buildings is associated with biological relationships between individuals and how biogenetic ties concentrate at specific localities on site.

“存在互惠网络”:Çatalhöyük 的社会物质考古网络和生物纽带



考古基因组学的最新进展使我们能够获得以前无法获得的生物信息,并有可能进一步理解我们在各种尺度上对过去社会动态的理解。然而,为了将这些数据正确地整合到考古叙述中,需要新的方法论和理论工具。必须努力寻找新的方法,将不同的数据集编织在一起,其中物质文化和考古基因组数据都是构成要素。当我们在个人层面研究关系时,在小范围内是如此,当我们处理社会和人口动态时,在更大的范围内也是如此。具体来说,在亲属关系的研究中,必须通过社会关系将生物关联置于背景中并使其有意义,在考古学中,这是通过使用物质文化作为代理来实现的。在本文中,我们提出了一个网络科学框架,在遗址内规模上整合考古基因组数据和物质文化,以研究 Çatalhöyük 新石器时代遗址的生物相关性和社会组织。在方法论上,我们建议使用网络方差来研究房屋网络内生物相关性与物质文化之间的关联。这种方法使我们能够观察建筑物之间的物质文化相似性如何与个体之间的生物关系相关联,以及生物遗传关系如何集中在现场的特定位置。
