- The First Hominin Colonization of Eurasia
1.118,95 kr. For the first two thirds of our evolutionary history, we hominins were restricted to Africa. What do we know about the adaptations of the hominins that dispersed - their diet, locomotor abilities, cultural abilities? Was the hominin dispersal part of a broader faunal expansion of African mammals northward?

- Ancient Flames and Controlled Use of Fire
483,95 - 567,95 kr. This book presents analyses of burned and unburned flint items which provide evidence for the controlled use of fire at the 790,000-year-old Acheulian site of Gesher Benot Ya'aqov. It shows that fire was already in regular use some 800,000 years ago.

This volume synthesizes the geological and paleontological context of the species in East and South Africa; debates the alpha taxonomy of some of the species;
