Resumen:
. We introduce here our research project on the simulation of
the historical trajectory of Patagonian societies since 13000 BP until the
present. It pretends to be an explanatory simulation model whose aim is to
identify yet unknown relationships and interactions that could have been
present in the history of those societies, but we do not have any documentary
source about them. In that sense, we start with a theory about hunter-gatherer
societies and we try to show the plausibility of this theory using agent-based
simulation methods and techniques. It is also a predictive simulation because
it is built on historical, ethnological and archaeological knowledge available
at the necessary level of detail. We pretend to build a simulation model that
enables to predict how historical societies behave in the past under certain
conditions. The general framework of agent-based simulation in the study of
prehistoric societies is also presented.
