{"product_id":"foraging-in-the-past-lemke-9781607327738","title":"Foraging in the Past: Archaeological Studies of Hunter-Gatherer Diversity","description":"The label \"hunter-gatherer\" covers an extremely diverse range of societies and behaviors, yet most of what is known is provided by ethnographic and historical data that cannot be used to interpret prehistory. \u003ci\u003eForaging in the Past\u003c\/i\u003e takes an explicitly archaeological approach to the potential of the archaeological record to document the variability and time depth of hunter-gatherers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Well-established and young scholars present new prehistoric data and describe new methods and theories to investigate ancient forager lifeways and document hunter-gatherer variability across the globe. The authors use relationships established by cross-cultural data as a background for examining the empirical patterns of prehistory. Covering underwater sites in North America, the peaks of the Andes, Asian rainforests, and beyond, chapters are data rich, methodologically sound, and theoretically nuanced, effectively exploring the latest evidence for behavioral diversity in the fundamental process of hunting and gathering. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eForaging in the Past\u003c\/i\u003e establishes how hunter-gatherers can be considered archaeologically, extending beyond the reach of ethnographers and historians to argue that only through archaeological research can the full range of hunter-gatherer variability be documented. Presenting a comprehensive and integrated approach to forager diversity in the past, the volume will be of significance to both students and scholars working with or teaching about hunter-gatherers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Contributors: Nicholas J.
