Provides data and information that can be used for comparative
analysis and as a foundation for further exploration. Inviting
research from various geographic, cultural, and temporal locales
from around the globe, the editors present a complex snapshot of
the past."-Anne L. Grauer, editor of A Companion to Paleopathology
Drawing upon wide-ranging studies of prehistoric human remains from
Europe, northern Africa, Asia, and the Americas, this
groundbreaking volume unites physical anthropologists,
archaeologists, and economists to explore how social structure can
be reflected in the human skeleton. Contributors identify many ways
in which social, political, and economic inequality have affected
health, disease, metabolic insufficiency, growth, and well-being.
The volume makes a strong case for a broader integration of
bioarchaeology with mortuary archaeology as its distinctive
approaches offer new ways to look at power, resources, social
organization, and the shape of human lives over time and across
cultures.
