Quaternary of the Levant presents up-to-date research achievements
from a region that displays unique interactions between the
climate, the environment and human evolution. Focusing on southeast
Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Israel, it brings together over
eighty contributions from leading researchers to review 2.5 million
years of environmental change and human cultural evolution.
Information from prehistoric sites and palaeoanthropological
studies contributing to our understanding of 'out of Africa'
migrations, Neanderthals, cultures of modern humans, and the
origins of agriculture are assessed within the context of
glacial-interglacial cycles, marine isotope cycles, plate
tectonics, geochronology, geomorphology, palaeoecology and
genetics. Complemented by overview summaries that draw together the
findings of each chapter, the resulting coverage is wide-ranging
and cohesive. The cross-disciplinary nature of the volume makes it
an invaluable resource for academics and advanced students of
Quaternary science and human prehistory, as well as being an
important reference for archaeologists working in the region.
