Was the spread of agro-pastoralism from the Eurasian founder regions dominated by?demic or by cultural diffusion? This study employs simulations that unfold a complex inter-regional?and time varying pattern of demic and diffusive exchange processes during the Neolithisation, and?thus supports from a modelling perspective the hypothesis that there is no simple or exclusive demic?or cultural diffusion, but that in most regions of Eurasia a combination of demic and cultural processes were important.
