Description

Explore the complex history of the Sahara through this ground-breaking volume from Cambridge University Press. This scholarly work examines how migration and identity formation are revealed through the study of funerary archaeology. By looking at burial structures, specific rites, and funerary material culture, the text provides a deep look into the lives of ancient populations. The book uses integrated methods of skeletal analysis, including morphometrics, palaeopathology, and isotopes, to reconstruct past human experiences. It offers a comparative look at burial traditions, contrasting those found in different parts of the Sahara with evidence from the Nile Valley, the Maghreb, and West Africa. This volume is an essential resource for those studying Saharan archaeology, history, and the movement of peoples across the African continent.
