Bioarchaeology of Frontiers and Borderlands (Bioarchaeological Interpretations of the Human Past: Local, Regional, and Global Perspectives)

This edited volume presents a series of cases addressing how living on or interacting with the frontier can affect health and socioeconomic status. This book aims to explore how different groups stuck in these zones were affected, how they interacted with the different worlds, how they lived their lives on the "edge". This volume also aims to emphasize the ways that frontiers and borderlands are liminal zones that demand a reconceptualization of many of our most deeply held assumptions about the relationships between people-place identity and culture.
