- catalog abstract ""Troubled Times: Violence and Warfare in the Past provides documentation for violence in human societies from a variety of sources and perspectives. Many of the essays focus strongly on evidence of violence left in the skeleton, but the book also includes studies from ethnographic accounts and conclusions drawn from the archaeological record. Thus, rather than only considering violence as recorded in the bones, an interdisciplinary approach is presented with an array of examples drawn from case studies in archaeology, ethnology, and osteology. Anthropologists have sometimes avoided discussions of "troubles in the human family," but this book forces new evaluations of days passed when life was not always peaceful between people and among neighbors."--BOOK JACKET.".
