Book Description:
|
A monumental synthesis of a half century of research, this book investigates three communities from the ancient Nubian civilization of the Nile River Valley. Excavations in this region first inspired the ""biocultural approach"" to human biology now used by anthropologists worldwide, and Life and Death on the Nile exemplifies the very best of this perspective.
