# R scripts and Supplementary Material for the Manuscript "How cultural transmission through objects impacts inferences about cultural evolution"

This repository contains the Rmarkdown supplementary material and the R scripts for generating simulation outputs and figures for the manuscript:

Crema, E.R., Bortolini, E. & Lake, M.W. (2023). How cultural transmission through objects impacts inferences about cultural evolution. _Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory_.

## File Structure

* `src.R` ... contains utility functions and simulation code for all experiments presented in the paper.

* `runscript.R` ... executes all simulations.

* `simres.RData` ... R image file containing the simulation outputs (generated from `runscript.R`)

* `makefigures.R` ... generates figures.

* `figures/*.pdf` ... pdf version of all figures in the paper. Generated using scripts contained in `makefigures.R`.

* `esm.Rmd` ... Suplementary material (in Rmarkdown format) containing detailed description of the models and the experiment design.

* `esm.html` ... [Rendered version](https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/ercrema/objectmediated_transmission/blob/main/esm.html) of `esm.Rmd`.
