BAR International: Regional Approaches to Adaptation in Late Pleistocene Western Europe (Paperback)

Studies of the Late Pleistocene period, approximately between 18,000 and 11,000 years ago, vary considerably in their interpretations of human activity, mobility and cultural complexity. This volume collects 21 papers which approach the subject from diverse geographical and chronological perspectives to examine, amongst other themes, the movement and interactions of population groups, regional comparisons and the relationship between theoretical models and archaeological data. General theoretical studies are combined with case studies, including evidence from the Dordogne and other parts of France, Spain and Portugal. One paper in French.
