Daniel H. Temple & Christopher M. Stojanowski (2018) - Hunter-Gatherer Adaptation and Resilience: A Bioarchaeological Perspective, Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 396 p. EAN 9781107187351, 84,00 €. Hunter-gatherer lifestyles defined the origins of modern humans and for tens of thousands of years were the only form of subsistence our species knew. This changed with the advent of food production, which occurred at different times throughout the world. The chapters in this volume explore the different ways that hunter-gatherer societies around the world adapted to changing social and ecological circumstances while still maintaining a predominantly hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Couched specifically within the framework of resilience theory, the authors use contextualized bioarchaeological analyses of health, diet, mobility, and funerary practices to explore how hunter-gatherers responded to challenges and actively resisted change that diminished the core of their social identity and worldview.
