Hunter‐Gatherer Territoriality: The Perspective from Australia1

PETERSON, NICOLAS·1975·American Anthropologist

Abstract

The question of whether Australian hunter‐gatherer territoriality is natural or conventional is considered. The definition and function of territorial behavior is discussed and its consequences for population control emphasized. A functional analogy is drawn between Aboriginal greeting ceremonies and non‐human boundary maintenance, and it is concluded that even without an innate component in territorial aggression, spacing is basic to Aboriginal society survival and therefore of biological significance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
