All too often, anthropologists study specific facets of human
migration without guidance from the other subdisciplines
(archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, and
linguistics) that can provide new insights on the topic. The
equivocal results of these narrow studies often make the discussion
of impact and consequences speculative. In the last decade,
however, anthropologists working independently in the four
subdisciplines have developed powerful methodologies to detect and
assess the scale of past migrations. Yet these advances are known
only to a few specialized researchers. Rethinking Anthropological
Perspectives on Migration brings together these new methods in one
volume and addresses innovative approaches to migration research
that emerge from the collective effort of scholars from different
intellectual backgrounds. Its contributors present a comprehensive
anthropological exploration of the many topics related to human
migration throughout the world, ranging from theoretical treatments
to specific case studies derived primarily from the Americas prior
to European contact.
Between 1969 and 1980, Soviet archaeologists conducted excavations
of Mesopotamian villages occupied from pre-agricultural times
through the beginnings of early civilization. This volume brings
together translations of Russian articles along with new work.
