Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The sophistication of Neanderthal behavioural strategies have been the subject of debate from the moment of their recognition as a separate species of hominin in 1856. This book presents a study on Neanderthal foraging prowess. Nove…l ethnographic and primatological insights, suggest that increasing dependence on high quality foods, such as meat, caused the brain to evolve to a large size and thus led to highly intelligent hominins. From this baseline, the author studies the Neanderthal archaeological record in order to gain insight into the 'knowledge-intensity' of Neanderthal hunting behaviour.In this research, an optimal foraging perspective is applied to Pleistocene bone assemblages. According to this perspective, foraging success is an important factor in an individual's evolutionary fitness. Therefore foraging is organised as efficiently as possible. The prey species that were selected and hunted by Neanderthals are analysed. The author investigates economic considerations that influenced Neanderthal prey choice. These considerations are based on estimates of the population densities of the available prey species and on estimates of the relative difficulty of hunting those species. The results demonstrate that when Neanderthals operated within poor environments, their prey choice was constrained: they were not able to hunt species living in large herds. In these environments, solitary species were the preferred prey. It is striking that Neanderthals successfully focussed on the largest and most dangerous species in poor environments. However, in richer environments, these constraints were lifted and species living in herds were successfully exploited.In order to assess the accuracy of this approach, bone assemblages formed by cave hyenas are also analysed. The combined results of the Neanderthal and hyena analyses show that an optimal foraging perspective provides a powerful tool to increase our understanding of Pleistocene ecology. The niches of two social carnivores of similar size, which were seemingly similar, are successfully distinguished. This result lends extra credence to the conclusions regarding Neanderthal foraging strategies.This book contributes to the debate surrounding Neanderthal competence and ability. It combines an up-to-date review of current knowledge on Neanderthal biology and archaeology, with novel approaches to the archaeological record. It is thus an important contribution to the current knowledge of this enigmatic species. 200 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This volume celebrates the academic life of prof. Raymond Corbey. It gathers contributions by diverse scholars and professionals from both science and society to engage with a range of key topics Raymond has grappled with at different s…tages of his capricious career. The volume not only provides an opinionated portrait of Raymond as an academic persona and sometimes controversial scholarly figure, unpacking key tropes of his intellectual journey such as 'sitting on the fence' or the 'embedded philosopher' and academic 'jester', it also illustrates the wide-ranging and inspirational nature of his work. As a 'boundary-worker' seeking to re-negotiate the limits, opportunities and contributions of various disciplines, the volume reflects Raymond's critical but always provocative engagement with issues such as theory-building, alien civilizations and cosmic evolution, nonhuman sentience, the politics of species, Darwinism, the Maussian gift, human nature, hand axes, the mark of the intentional, diamonds, the structure of the European Mousterian, the relation between cultural anthropology and archaeology, liminality and the marginal, ritual and religion, cats, primates, language, heritage and the many legacies of Western thinking and acting in the world. Taken together, these individual contributions showcase the immense scope - temporal, geographic and topical - that defines Raymond's unique scholarly venture which continues to animate many of his friends, colleagues and former students.The volume will be of interest for a broad readership in academia and beyond, and for the first time brings poignant essays from philosophy to archaeology into conversation, which comment on, continue, or critique the scholarship Raymond embodies. This scholarship defies the contemporary tendency of hyper-specialization, and sometimes scholasticism, and inspires us to transcend the self-erected boundaries of academic and public cathedrals in our thinking and acting alike.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 236 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This collection of papers was compiled in celebration of the remarkable academic career of Professor Wil Roebroeks, who has established himself as one of Europe's leading figures in Palaeolithic archaeology over the past three decades a…nd founded the Human origins research group at Leiden University. The volume features a diverse array of chapters contributed by close colleagues, as well as former and current students, providing a thorough overview of the flourishing field of Palaeolithic archaeology both at Leiden University and beyond its academic walls. Among the studies presented, several focus on the landmark site of Maastricht-Belvédère, which was initially excavated under the direction of Roebroeks. The detailed analyses offered within these chapters shed light on Neanderthal behaviour, providing an exceptionally high-resolution view of their activities and adaptations. Additional contributions explore broader themes in human prehistory, delving into Neanderthal land-use strategies, their sophisticated management of fire, and aspects of modern human subsistence practices, including the use of shelters and living spaces.This volume will be of great interest to archaeologists specializing in hunter-gatherer studies, Pleistocene archaeology, or those with a more general interest in human prehistory and the behaviours of early hominin species.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 232 pp. Englisch.
