Note: Cultures surmised from assemblages of artifacts that recur as to type, general date, and places of distribution, thus often held by scholars to represent the material culture remains of a particular past human society. Use of the term is debated. Some scholars note that particular types of material culture do not always relate directly to groups or societies. However, use of the term has increased in recent years in scholarly publications. |
