It answers questions about intra- and inter-regional relationships in the evolution of maritime adaptations throughout the region. The authors collectively address evidence of aquatic activities during the Late Pleistocene and Holocene in the Sea of Japan, Sea of Okhotsk and adjacent coastal areas of Korea, Japan, Sakhalin Island, the Kurile Islands and the Russian Far East with syntheses placing the region into a larger North Pacific context. This examination provides essential data on human modes of terrestrial adaptation and the transition to maritime lifeways over the last 40,000 years. It also provides a much-needed foundation to better understand the peopling of the New World 17,000 years ago, either by a pedestrian transit or through the use of watercraft, or more likely a combination of the two. As one of the first publications on the prehistory of the maritime region of Northeast Asia provided in English, with contributions by leading Korean, Japanese, Russian, Canadian, European and US-based researchers of the region, this volume presents a means for archaeologists to assess proposed hypotheses pertaining to late Pleistocene and Holocene seafaring around the North Pacific Rim. With a Foreword by Dr William W. Fitzhugh, this book is an essential read for specialists in history, archaeology, behavioural ecology and maritime evolution. 410 0$aThe Archaeology of Asia-Pacific Navigation,$x2524-7476 ;$v6 606 $aUnderwater archaeology 606 $aArchaeology$xMethodology 606 $aAsia$xHistory 606 $aPrehistoric peoples 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aMaritime Archaeology 606 $aArchaeological Methodology 606 $aAsian History 606 $aPrehistoric Archaeology 606 $aHuman Migration 615 0$aUnderwater archaeology. 615 0$aArchaeology$xMethodology. 615 0$aAsia$xHistory. 615 0$aPrehistoric peoples. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 14$aMaritime Archaeology. 615 24$aArchaeological Methodology. 615 24$aAsian History. 615 24$aPrehistoric Archaeology. 615 24$aHuman Migration. 676 $a950.1 702 $aFitzhugh$b William W. 702 $aCassidy$b Jim 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910574047803321 996 $aMaritime Prehistory of Northeast Asia$92869584 997 $aUNINA
