Bringing together the most active researchers in late Pleistocene/Holocene Southeast Asian human osteology,this volume considers major approaches to studying human skeletal remains。 Using analysis of the physical appearance of the region’s past peoples,it explores issues such as the evidence for migratory patterns (particularly between Southeast and Northeast Asia) and counter arguments centering on in situ microevolutionary change。 Written for archaeologists,bioarchaeologists and biological anthropologists,the book provides fascinating insight into the bioarchaeology of this important region。
