Description

Accessible and engaging, this is the definitive textbook on using teeth to study the demography and ways of life in ancient human communities.

Based on extensive laboratory and field experience, this new edition combines archaeological approaches with new technologies and methodologies, covering the key advances in anatomy, forensics, 3D imaging, stable isotopes, and proteomics.

Hillson provides a biological context for teeth, a guide on key skills, an introduction to current debates, and advice for the excavation, conservation and recording of dental remains.

He also showcases the microscopic structure of dental tissues alongside methods of age-determination.

Discover solutions to problems such as identifying worn, fragmentary human teeth or understanding their condition.

This is the ideal reference for advanced courses in anthropology or archaeology, and for everyone interested in dental remains from archaeological sites, museum collections or forensic cases.

Online teaching resources include videos of lectures and practicals.
