Overview
Computational archaeology refers to a broad range of methodological and theoretical aspects concerning the use and the development of computer-based analytical methods for the study of the archaeological record and the human past. Early applications of these computational techniques dates back to the late 70s, and since then the field has changed its status from a fringe field to a major player in the archaeological discourse, with dedicated international conferences such as the CAA and several academic journals publishing the most recent outputs of the field. Computational archaeology sits at the core of archaeological sciences, bridging big questions to chemical, genetic, biological, and geographic data by means of statistical analysis.
