"Social and environmental transitions: Simulating the past to understand human behaviour" (SimulPast) is a scientific research project to develop simulation modelling methods for the study of social changes.  It uses archaeological data from ancient societies in relation with environmental transformations. Incorporating researchers from across archaeology, anthropology, computer science, environmental studies, physics, mathematics and sociology, SimulPast is a five-year project funded by the Spanish Government through the CONSOLIDER-INGENIO2010 programme (CSD2010-00034).
