This volume is a compilation of results from sessions of the Second
International Conference on the Replacement of Neanderthals by
Modern Humans, which took place between November 30 and December 6,
2014, in Hokkaido, Japan. Similar to the first conference held in
2012 in Tokyo, the 2014 conference (RNMH2014) aimed to compile the
results of the latest multidisciplinary approaches investigating
the issues surrounding the replacement of Neanderthals by modern
humans. The results of the sessions, supplemented by off-site
contributions, center on the archeology of the Middle and Upper
Paleolithic of the Levant and beyond. The first part of this volume
presents recent findings from the Levant, while the second part
focuses on the neighboring regions, namely, the Caucasus, the
Zagros, and South Asia. The 13 chapters in this volume highlight
the distinct nature of the cultural occurrences during the Middle
and Upper Paleolithic periods of the Levant, displaying a
continuous development as well as a combination of lithic
traditions that may have originated in different regions. This
syncretism, which is an unusual occurrence in the regions discussed
in this volume, reinforces the importance of the Levant as a region
for interpreting the RNMH phenomenon in West Asia.
