The Middle Holocene epoch (8,000 to 3,000 years ago) was a time of
dramatic changes in the physical world and in human cultures.
Across this span, climatic conditions changed rapidly, with cooling
in the high to mid-latitudes and drying in the tropics. In many
parts of the world, human groups became more complex, with early
horticultural systems replaced by intensive agriculture and
small-scale societies being replaced by larger, more hierarchial
organizations. Climate Change and Cultural Dynamics explores the
cause and effect relationship between climatic change and cultural
transformations across the mid-Holocene (c. 4000 B.C.).
* Explores the role of climatic change on the development of
society around the world
* Chapters detail diverse geographical regions
* Co-written by noted archaeologists and paleoclimatologists for
non-specialists
