From Publisher:
The field of forensic anthropology has become increasingly important to other forensic scientists and to the public since the 1970s.
Compiled from a symposium organized by the Mountain, Desert, and Coastal Forensic Anthropologists, this is one of the few book-length works devoted entirely to the determination of racial affiliation from skeletal remains. It is valuable for its graphic images of variation in skull and face form and covers a wide range of techniques for determining ancestry in unknown individuals. This is a great book for students of forensic anthropology.
"I highly recommend this book, and it should interest a wide audience. Although it explores events during a specific period of history in one region of Yucatan. Alexander successfully situates these events within a much broader context. At it root this book explores the ways that rural populations rspond to economic development and globalization, a timeless issue."--Journal of Anthropological Research
