This chapter presents a review of the evidence for human occupation and modification of the lowland neotropical forest during the pre-Columbian era. It examines some of the most important factors relating to the occupation and use of tropical landscapes by prehistoric human societies and updates the information presented in the 2006 edition of this book. Late Pleistocene through early and Middle Holocene temporal frames (c. 16 to 5 kcal yr bp) were covered most extensively in the first edition, as these were the periods during which humans colonized both hemispheres of the Americas and agricultural societies emerged and spread throughout the lowland tropical forest.
