Conduct a quick research and provide your thoughts on “Psychic Unity.” Psychic Unit, interestingly enough, underlies both the traditional (Boas: historical reconstruction) and scientific (Binford: laws of human behavior) approach to archaeology. To me, Psychic Unity seems more appropriate for the Processual Approach (New Archaeology) that aims to develop cross-cultural models and laws/patterns of human behavior. As biological, predictable, and logical beings (according to scientific archaeology) we should evaluate and respond similarly when faced with significant challenges. What are your thoughts on Psychic Unity and does it seem more appropriate to one approach or relevant to both. And, what your thoughts in general regarding what determines or underlies human behavior. This question, to some degree, parallels the nature versus nurture debate.
