The Human Past offers authoritative and up-to-date coverage of prehistory. Thoroughly revised and re-designed, this new edition combines expert writing with a clear, student-friendly approach. • Newly designed timelines, maps and 50% more colour images enhance understanding. • Streamlined chapters clarify key concepts and improve the narrative. • A new chapter, ‘The Origins, Antiquity, and Dispersal of the First Americans’ by David J. Meltzer, increases coverage of the Americas. • New ‘Key Theme’ boxes link chapters through common issues in human history, focusing on climate change, domestication, migration, social inequality and urbanism. • Updated scholarship gives readers a contemporary perspective: this edition includes new genetic evidence revealing the arrival of the Yamnaya people in Europe and new theories on the relationship between sedentism and agriculture. • Instructor and student resources are available, including a test bank, student quizzes, chapter summaries and PowerPoint art slides.
