This text offers a profile of recent research activities in skeletal anthropology and paleodemography and documents the progress achieved within this century. The book describes the techniques scientists use today to reconstruct life patterns and individual identification from human skeletal remains and explains how to determine the way people lived rather than merely listing the history and evolution of population groups. It covers on-going research projects, practical applications of theories and methods, previous investigations in the light of new methodologies and concepts and critical reviews of major topics of interest in skeletal physical anthropology. Throughout the text, leading authorities in the field reassess and evaluate methods, past and present, to offer a full explanation of major problems and issues in the exciting fields of forensic anthropology and palaeodemography.
