Migrations constitute one of the most defining features of human
history from the very beginning to the present. In recent years,
the increasing application of ancient DNA and isotope studies has
been revolutionising our understanding of past population
movements, although the interpretation of the results is often
still controversial. Rethinking Migrations in Late Prehistoric
Eurasia provides an insight into cutting-edge research on late
prehistoric migrations in Eurasia, integrating different strands of
evidence and emphasising the need for combining bioarchaeological
analyses with a solid theoretical and methodological background.
The 15 chapters within the book range from the 3rd to the 1st
millennia BC, with a geographical scope extending from Atlantic
Europe to Central Asia. Case studies include a reassessment of
large-scale migrations, but also high-resolution studies from
micro-regions. Overall, the results offered in the volume reveal
the extraordinary diversity of migrations in ancient Eurasia and
the ways in which archaeology can contribute to wider discussions
on past and present mobility.
