Hunter-gatherer lifestyles defined the origins of modern humans and
for tens of thousands of years were the only form of subsistence
our species knew. This changed with the advent of food production,
which occurred at different times throughout the world. The
chapters in this volume explore the different ways that
hunter-gatherer societies around the world adapted to changing
social and ecological circumstances while still maintaining a
predominantly hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Couched specifically
within the framework of resilience theory, the authors use
contextualized bioarchaeological analyses of health, diet,
mobility, and funerary practices to explore how hunter-gatherers
responded to challenges and actively resisted change that
diminished the core of their social identity and worldview.
