Book Synopsis Bioarchaeology and Identity in the Americas by : Kelly J. Knudson
Book excerpt: This book represents a shift in the interpretation of skeletal remains in the Americas. Until recently, bioarchaeology has focused on interpreting and analyzing populations. The chapters here examine how individuals fit into those larger populations. The aim is to demonstrate how bioarchaeologists can contribute to our understanding of the formation, representation, and repercussions of identity.
