Evidence amassed in Troubled Times indicates that, much like in the
modern world, violence was not an uncommon aspect of prehistoric
dispute resolution. From the civilizations of the American
Southwest to the Mesolithic of Central Europe, the contributors
examine violence in hunter-gatherer as well as state societies from
both the New and Old Worlds.
Drawing upon cross-cultural analyses, archaeological data, and
skeletal remains, this collection of papers offers evidence of
domestic violence, homicide, warfare, cannibalism, and ritualized
combat among ancient peoples. Beyond the physical evidence, various
models and explanations for violence in the past are explored.
