In this latest volume in the Human Evolution Series, Erik Trinkaus
and his co-authors synthesize the research and findings concerning
the human remains found at the Sunghir archaeological site. It has
long been apparent to those in the field of paleoanthropology that
the human fossil remains from the site of Sunghir are an important
part of the human paleoanthropological record, and that these
fossil remains have the potential to provide substantial data and
inferences concerning human biology and behavior, both during the
earlier Upper Paleolithic and concerning the early phases of human
occupation of high latitude continental Eurasia. But despite many
separate investigations and published studies on the site and its
findings, a single and definitive volume does not yet exist on the
subject. This book combines the expertise of four
paleoanthropologists to provide a comprehensive description and
paleobiological analysis of the Sunghir human remains. Since 1990,
Trinkaus et al. have had access to the Sunghir site and its
findings, and the authors have published frequently on the topic.
The book places these human fossil remains in context with other
Late Pleistocene humans, utilizing numerous comparative charts,
graphs, and figures. As such, the book is highly illustrated, in
color. Trinkaus and his co-authors outline the many advances in
paleoanthropology that these remains have helped to bring about,
examining the Sunghir site from all angles.
