Archeologia
ilość książek w kategorii: 15486
Archeologia, to nauka, której celem jest odtwarzanie społeczno-kulturowej przeszłości człowieka na podstawie znajdujących się w ziemi, na ziemi lub w wodzie źródeł archeologicznych, czyli materialnych pozostałości działań ludzkich. Ze względu na cel tej dyscypliny archeologia w tradycji środkowoeuropejskiej (w krajach niemieckojęzycznych i słowiańskich) ściśle łączy się z historią. W krajach anglosaskich, zwłaszcza w Stanach Zjednoczonych, archeologię uważa się za wiążącą się ściśle z antropologią i etnologią. We Francji, archeologię uważa się często także za związaną z naukami o Ziemi. Archeologia pierwotnie zajmowała się jedynie najdawniejszymi dziejami człowieka, obecnie wspomaga również rekonstrukcję czasów historycznych, w tym także i najnowszych. W księgarni internetowej krainaksiazek.pl znajdziesz ogromny wybór książek archeologicznych, tych, które przedstawiają ujęcie anglosaskie, oraz środkowoeuropejskie. Przeczytasz najnowsze publikacje i odkrycia naukowe z tej dziedziny po angielsku, niemiecku, hiszpańsku, czesku, francusku, a także w innych językach.

The Sangamo Frontier: History and Archaeology in the Shadow of Lincoln
ISBN: 9780226514253 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When Abraham Lincoln moved to Illinois Sangamo Country in 1831, he found a pioneer community transforming from a cluster of log houses along an ancient trail to a community of new towns and state roads. But two of the towns vanished in a matter of years, and many of the activities and lifestyles that shaped them were almost entirely forgotten. In "The Sangamo Frontier," archaeologist Robert Mazrim unearths the buried history of this early American community, breathing new life into a region that still rests in Lincoln s shadow. When Abraham Lincoln moved to Illinois Sangamo Country in 1831, he found a pioneer community transforming from a cluster of log houses along an anc... |

Social Adaptation to Food Stress: A Prehistoric Southwestern Example
ISBN: 9780226530246 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Combining anthropology, archeology, and evolutionary theory, Paul E. Minnis develops a model of how tribal societies deal with severe food shortages. While focusing on the prehistory of the Rio Mimbres region of New Mexico, he provides comparative data from the Fringe Enga of New Guinea, the Tikopia of Tikopia Island, and the Gwembe Tonga of South Africa.
Minnis proposes that, faced with the threat of food shortages, nonstratified societies survive by employing a series of responses that are increasingly effective but also are increasingly costly and demand increasingly larger cooperative...

Bonebeds: Genesis, Analysis, and Paleobiological Significance
ISBN: 9780226723716 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The vertebrate fossil record extends back more than 500 million years, and bonebeds localized concentrations of the skeletal remains of vertebrate animals help unlock the secrets of this long history. Often spectacularly preserved, bonebeds both modern and ancient can reveal more about life histories, ecological associations, and preservation patterns than any single skeleton or bone. For this reason, bonebeds are frequently studied by paleobiologists, geologists, and archeologists seeking to piece together the vertebrate record.
Thirteen respected researchers combine their experiences in... The vertebrate fossil record extends back more than 500 million years, and bonebeds localized concentrations of the skeletal remains of vertebrate ani...

The Meaning of Fossils: Episodes in the History of Palaeontology
ISBN: 9780226731032 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "It is not often that a work can literally rewrite a person's view of a subject. And this is exactly what Rudwick's book should do for many paleontologists' view of the history of their own field." Stephen J. Gould, "Paleobotany and Palynology"
"Rudwick has not merely written the first book-length history of palaeontology in the English language; he has written a very intelligent one. . . . His accounts of sources are rounded and organic: he treats the structure of arguments as Cuvier handled fossil bones." Roy S. Porter, "History of Science"" "It is not often that a work can literally rewrite a person's view of a subject. And this is exactly what Rudwick's book should do for many paleontolo...

Scenes from Deep Time: Early Pictorial Representations of the Prehistoric World
ISBN: 9780226731056 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How did the earth look in prehistoric times? Scientists and artists collaborated during the half-century prior to the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species to produce the first images of dinosaurs and the world they inhabited. Their interpretations, informed by recent fossil discoveries, were the first efforts to represent the prehistoric world based on sources other than the Bible. Martin J. S. Rudwick presents more than a hundred rare illustrations from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to explore the implications of reconstructing a past no one has ever seen.

ISBN: 9780226771410 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Sprinkled across the tropical Pacific, the innumerable islands of Oceania are home to some of the most unique bird communities on the planet, and they sustain species found nowhere else on earth. Many of the birds that live in this region are endangered, however; many more have become extinct as a result of human activity, in both recent and prehistoric times.

Prehistoric Life on the Mississippi Floodplain: Stone Tool Use, Settlement Organization, and Subsistence Practices at the Labras Lake Site, Illinois
ISBN: 9780226951515 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At the confluence of the Illinois, the Missouri, and the Mississippi Rivers lies the "American Bottom," a broad floodplain that prehistoric peoples inhabited for millennia. Precisely how did they live? What were their ties to the natural world around them?

Yerkes interprets a wealth of important new data in a stimulating and original fashion.
With a fine-tuned control of the data, Yerkes challenges prevailing theories based on simple... At the confluence of the Illinois, the Missouri, and the Mississippi Rivers lies the "American Bottom," a broad floodplain that prehistoric peoples in...

The authors explore the late Precambrian and earliest Cambrian fossil record to explain the Cambrian phenomenon and discuss the possibility of a major turnover in marine ecology at the beginning of the Cambrian period or whether a new, improved type of animal appeared at this time. They support their often controversial conclusions with photos and illustrations of fossils, some never before published.

Late Paleocene-Early Eocene Biotic and Climatic Events in the Marine and Terrestrial Records
ISBN: 9780231102384 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The transition from the Paleocene to the Eocene Epoch--approximately 55 million years ago--represents a critical moment in the earth's history, when the warmest climatic episode of the Cenozoic era occurred. This sudden global warming resulted in major turnovers among marine and terrestrial organisms. Although this episode has become one of the most popular areas of research in the geologic sciences in the past decade, there has not yet been a work that brings together the profusion of new results in one volume. This book offers by far the most comprehensive source of data on a critically...

Exceptional Fossil Preservation: A Unique View on the Evolution of Marine Life

Most nonscientists are usually aware of fossils, and it is commonly believed that they are extremely rare. In fact, fossils are exceptionally common in many sedimentary rocks and are used extensively in geology for age dating, interpretation of ancient environments, and the discovery of natural resources. However, there is another type of fossil deposit that is truly rare. These rare fossil deposits, called Lagerstatten, preserve the remains of the soft tissues or the articulated skeletal remains of ancient creatures in truly astonishing fine detail. Some of these deposits are world-famous,...
