By comparing osteological and archaeological evidence, as well as integrating images and texts, authors consider whether childhood age classes are archaeologically recognizable, at which approximated ages transitions took place, whether they are gradual or abrupt and different for girls and boys. Age transitions may be marked by celebrations and rituals; cultural accentuation of developmental stages may be reflected by inclusion or exclusion at cemeteries, by objects associated with childhood such as feeding vessels and toys, and gradual access to adult material culture. Access to tools, weapons and status symbols, as well as children's agency, rank and social status, are recurrent themes. The volume accounts for the variability in how a range of chronologically and geographically diverse communities perceived children and childhood, and at the same time, discloses universal trends in child development in the (pre-)historic past.Childhood in the Past Monograph SeriesAges and Abilities Psychology / Developmental / ChildbisacshPsychologyPsychology / Developmental / ChildPsychology305.231Rebay-Salisbury KatharinaPany-Kucera DorisScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910633943403321Ages and Abilities2989602UNINA
