商品描述

Over 15,000 years ago, a band of hunter-gatherers became the first people to set foot in the Americas. They soon found themselves in a world rich in plants and animals, but also a world still shivering itself out of the coldest depths of the Ice Age. The movement of those first Americans was one of the greatest journeys undertaken by ancient peoples. In this book, David Meltzer explores the world of Ice Age Americans, highlighting genetic, archaeological, and geological evidence that has revolutionized our understanding of their origins, antiquity, and adaptation to climate and environmental change. This fully updated edition integrates the most recent scientific discoveries, including the ancient genome revolution and human evolutionary and population history. Written for a broad audience, the book can serve as the primary text in courses on North American Archaeology, Ice Age Environments, and Human evolution and prehistory.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

超過15,000年前,一群狩獵採集者成為第一批踏足美洲的人類。他們很快發現自己置身於一個植物和動物豐富的世界,但同時這個世界仍在從冰河時期最寒冷的深淵中顫抖著。這些第一批美洲人的移動是古代人類所進行的最偉大的旅程之一。在這本書中,David Meltzer 探索了冰河時期美洲人的世界,突顯了基因、考古和地質證據,這些證據徹底改變了我們對他們的起源、古老性以及對氣候和環境變化的適應的理解。這本全面更新的版本整合了最新的科學發現,包括古代基因組革命以及人類的演化和人口歷史。這本書是為廣泛的讀者群而寫,可以作為北美考古學、冰河時期環境以及人類演化和史前時代課程的主要教材。
