Space and Time in Archaeology. Part 5. Archaeological Cultures of the Stone Age
Creating a unified chronology of Stone Age, in which its individual cultures of different spatial localization could be incorporated, is a nontrivial scientific problem of modern archeology. We try to solve this problem with help of informatics-cybernetic approach. In fifth part of our work, in contexts of numerical model (using the reverse Fibonacci's series and series with denominator 1/e <sup>e</sup>), we have undertaken a study of Stone-Age archaeological cultures in spatial and temporal terms. The result of this approach was a series of novation solutions offered by us in our article. Thus, we introduce the concept ‘evolutionary chronomodule-triad'. This term represents epistemological structure that corresponds to the length of considered archaeological sub-epoch (ASE). Under this approach, the three final period of the previous ASE overlap its first half (in logarithmic scale), three initial periods of subsequent ASE are underlying to its second half. Target criterion for archaeological culture inclusion to one or another division of the Stone Age traditionally includes temporal and cultural and archaeological factors. We propose to add factor of ‘information complexity of person' to this criterion. We have created model that assigns follow parameters: a) chronological framework into which specific archeological culture (AC) can be fitted, b) areal into which the AC can be fitted, c) culture-specific components AC (in the form of dominants of development at its respective stages), d) level of informational complexity of the subject that creates ASE, in which particular AC is fitted, e) other AC, which are synchronized and shared with specific archaeological culture. ACs similarity means that they belong to the same evolutionary segment. Bearing this fact in mind, we conclude that the algorithm for the inclusion of specific materials of one or another AC in our proposed system should take into account (i) their time, (ii) their place, (iii) the presence of presumptive AC, (iv) the ability to select a single solutions.
