Description

Explore the deep connections between human history and evolutionary science with Mapping Our Ancestors: Phylogenetic Approaches in Anthropology and Prehistory. This work examines how much of our current identity comes from our ancestors through both cultural and biological inheritance mechanisms. From our genetic composition to the structure of languages and the rules of human behavior, much of what we are is passed down through generations. This book demonstrates how various genealogical or phylogenetic methods help answer fundamental questions about human history. By providing evolutionary explanations for the shape of history, it provides a framework for understanding how instructions for constructing artifacts and social behaviors are transmitted. As anthropologists increasingly turn to quantitative phylogenetic methods, this text offers a necessary look at how these tools are used to study the human past and build comprehensive evolutionary models.
