This chapter explores the food webs of the Sanac Archipelago in Polynesia, detailing collaborative research efforts with archaeologists to understand human and non-human species interactions. The discussion emphasizes the significance of ecological contexts in shaping historical and cultural developments across the islands.
In this episode, we continue our conversation with Professor Jennifer Dunne, the Vice President for Science at the Santa Fe Institute.
In this episode, Jennifer discusses her work to understand ‘human-centred interaction networks’ - how humans interact with non-human species in a range of ways, including for food - by examining Indigenous cultures around the world and historical migration to Polynesian islands.
