TWO CASE STUDIES
vThe Austronesian expansion, somewhat like the Bantu expansion, has typically been
linguistics driven.
Is it reasonable to posit a linguistic presence from archaeology?
vPalaeo-climatology, derived from
geomorphology, has further our understanding of the
possibilities of movement
in the Holocene Sahara. This appears to tie up with the expansion of Nilo-Saharan, palaeozoogeography and some material culture finds. Can such types of evidence be
integrated?
