The book highlights and contrasts the differences between Neandertals and early modern humans and explores the morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptive solutions which led to the extinction of the Neandertals and the population expansion of modern humans. Written by a world recognized expert in physical anthropology, Thin on the Ground: Neandertal Biology, Archaeology and Ecology will be a must have title for anyone interested in the rise and fall of the Neandertals"--Provided by publisher."Integrates current understanding of the biology, archeology, and ecology of Neandertals"--Provided by publisher.Foundation of Human BiologyNeanderthalsPaleolithic periodHuman evolutionNeanderthals.Paleolithic period.Human evolution.599.93/8SOC002020bisacshChurchill Steven Emilio1637125MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819157303321Thin on the ground3978778UNINA
