The Palaeolithic Settlement of Asia

The Palaeolithic Settlement of Asia

Robin Dennell, 2008

Overview

This book offers the first comprehensive analysis of evidence concerning Asia's earliest inhabitants, predating modern humans by over 100,000 years. While often overlooked in favor of Africa and Europe, Asia's role in human origins is crucial for a global understanding. The study synthesizes archaeological findings, fossil hominin records, and environmental data from across the continent. It challenges established ideas about early Asian populations and highlights their significance in human evolution over the past two million years.
