Description: Reconstructing Olduvai: The Behavior of Early Humans at David's Site provides the necessary information for future generations of archaeologists to peer into the lifestyle of early humans. Much of what is known about these hominins originates from the detailed excavations that Mary Leakey carried out at Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania. Since then work at Olduvai has produced a wealth of new fossils resulting in the discovery of David's Site the biggest early Pleistocene site in the world. This will be an indispensable resource for students academics and researchers who share an interest in the evolution of early human behavior.
