ISBN: 9780123884374 / Angielski / Spiral bound / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the forensic context it is quite common for nonhuman bones to be confused with human remains and end up in the medical examiner or coroner system. It is also quite common for skeletal remains (both human and nonhuman) to be discovered in archaeological contexts. While the difference between human and nonhuman bones is often very striking, it can also be quite subtle. Fragmentation only compounds the problem. The ability to differentiate between human and nonhuman bones is dependent on the training of the analyst and the available reference and/or comparative material. ...In the forensic context it is quite common for nonhuman bones to be confused with human remains and end up in the medical examiner or coroner syste... |

Interpreting the Landscape : Landscape Archaeology and Local History
ISBN: 9780415151405 / Angielski / Miękka / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most places in Britain have had a local history written about them. Up until this century these histories have addressed more parochial issues, such as the life of the manor, rather than explaining the features and changes in the landscape in a factual manner. Much of what is visible today in Britain's landscape is the result of a chain of social and natural processes, and can be interpreted through fieldwork as well as from old maps and documents. The author uses a wide range of source material to study the history of the countryside, illustrating his points with aerial photographs, maps,...

Opening with an exploration of the history of anthropology, Bloch shows why...
