This book presents the results of archaeological research in the
extreme south of Madagascar between 1991 and 2003, and provides a
synthesis of the regions archaeology. Madagascar is an island with
many unique species of fauna and flora; its extreme south is a
semi-arid region with remarkable vegetational adaptations. The
project began as an ethnoarchaeological and ethnohistorical study
of the origins and development of the monumental stone tombs which
are built throughout the south, but expanded into a far wider
archaeological study. The contributors trace the phases of the
region's history from the first human colonisation and the
extinction of much of the island's megafauna to the growth and
collapse of the Manda civilization, contact with Europeans and
right up to the present day.
