Analytical Archaeology and Arti!cial Adaptive Systems Laboratory (LAA&AAS)

This contribution represents a further attempt to synthesise and to introduce the research activities of the Analytical Archaeology & Arti3cial Adaptive Systems Laboratory (LAA&AAS) recently instituted at La Sapienza University of Rome thanks to the award of the project ARCHEOSEMA and to the institutional collaboration of the Department of Antiquities and the Department of Intercultural and European Studies and Physic Department. The main didactic and empirical activities of the Laboratory are related to the applicative simulations of Arti3cial Adaptive Systems to the analysis of complex natural and cultural phenomena through the lens of Analytical Archaeology. These complex phenomena are essentially understood to be the product of cognitive behaviour, in other words models and ideal-types which represent it and can be analysed on a formal logical level. This introductory exploration leads to a signi3cant syntactic diversi3cation of logical inferences and a progressive human attempt to
