Previously published as the first volume of The Encyclopedia
of Global Human Migration, this work is devoted exclusively to
prehistoric migration, covering all periods and places from the
first hominin migrations out of Africa through the end of
prehistory.

* Presents interdisciplinary coverage of this topic, including
scholarship from the fields of archaeology, anthropology, genetics,
biology, linguistics, and more

* Includes contributions from a diverse international team of
authors, representing 17 countries and a variety of
disciplines

* Divided into two sections, covering the Pleistocene and
Holocene; each section examines human migration through chapters
that focus on different regional and disciplinary lenses
