This book provides the first analysis and synthesis of the evidence
of the earliest inhabitants of Asia before the appearance of modern
humans 100,000 years ago. Asia has received far less attention than
Africa and Europe in the search for human origins, but is no longer
considered of marginal importance. Indeed, a global understanding
of human origins cannot be properly understood without a detailed
consideration of the largest continent. In this study, Robin
Dennell examines a variety of sources, including the archaeological
evidence, the fossil hominin record, and the environmental and
climatic background from Southwest, Central, South, and Southeast
Asia, as well as China. He presents an authoritative and
comprehensive framework for investigations of Asia's oldest
societies, challenges many long-standing assumptions about its
earliest inhabitants, and places Asia centrally in the discussions
of human evolution in the past two million years.
