Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 605-634 pages with photographs, figures and cited references. Quarto (11" x 8 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. current Anthropology Volume 36 Number 4 complete issue. First edition. Elucidation of the evolutionary context of the earliest production of humanly made, intentional markings is hampered by insufficient resolution in the relevant archaeological ''record,'' failure to consider the effects of taphonomic selection on this ''record,'' archaeological biases against evidence purported to relate to early cognitive capacities, inadequate familiarity of some protagonists with the available relevant evidence, archaeological conservatism predicated on the durability of unfalsifiable propositions, and a tendency to interpret lack of a particular class of evidence as denoting the historical absence of the phenomenon it is thought to represent. Contending with these and other formidable biases, I review the Lower Paleolithic evidence that seems to permit glimpses of the cognitive and technological capacities of early hominids. I reject the general concept of abrupt transitions between the major phases of the Paleolithic, arguing that such models can be accounted for by plateaus derived from taphonomy, methodology, dating techniques, and the archaeological penchant for creating cultural taxonomies. A more gradual evolution of cognitive faculties is favored, beginning with the Lower Paleolithic, for which concept-mediated marking is suggested.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book examines systematically both the theoretical and practical issues that have characterized the discipline over the past two centuries. Some of the historically most consequential mistakes in archaeology are dissected and explained, together with the effects of the related controversies. The theoretical basis of the discipline is deliberated in some detail, leading to the diagnosis that there are in fact numerous archaeologies, all with different notions of commensurability, ideologies, and purposes. Their various perspectives of what archaeology is and does are considered and the range of views of the human past is illuminated in this book. How humans became what they are today is of profound importance to understanding ourselves, both as a species and individually. Our psychology, cognition, diseases, intellect, communication forms, physiology, predispositions, ideologies, culture, genetics, behavior, and, perhaps most importantly, our reality constructs are all the result of our evolutionary history. Therefore the models archaeology-especially Pleistocene archaeology-creates of our past are not just narratives of what happened in human history; they are fundamental to every aspect of our existence.
