Download or read book Growing Up in the Ice Age written by April Nowell and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2021-06-09 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In prehistoric societies children comprised 40–65% of the population, yet by default, our ancestral landscapes are peopled by adults who hunt, gather, fish, knap tools, and make art. But these adults were also parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles who had to make space physically, emotionally, intellectually, and cognitively for the infants, children, and adolescents around them. Growing Up in the Ice Age is a timely and evidence-based look at the lived lives of Paleolithic children and the communities of which they were a part. By rendering these ‘invisible’ children visible, readers will gain a new understanding of the Paleolithic period as a whole, and in doing so will learn how children have contributed to the biological and cultural entities we are today.

Download or read book The Archaeology of Infancy and Infant Death written by Eleanor Scott and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 1999 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a wide-ranging archaeological description and analysis of infancy, the social constructions of infancy, and the practices of infant care and social reproduction through time and across space. The main themes are the ways in which infants have lived in and have been perceived by society, the burial of the infant dead, and the meanings of domestic infanticide and infant sacrifice. It examines infancy as a process with meanings varying between and within societies, and it addresses the relationships between infants and adults. The contradictions which lie at the heart of attitudes to infants, and the exclusion of neonates from communal life and communal burial, are recurrent themes. The whole is rounded off with a concluding chapter which aims to establish some general statements about past attitudes to infancy and the treatment of infants, whilst stressing the particularity and specificity of the various historical contexts which have been examined.

Download or read book The Archaeology of Childhood written by Güner Coşkunsu and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children existed in ancient times as active participants in the societies in which they lived and the cultures they belonged to. Despite their various roles, and in spite of the demographic composition of ancient societies where children comprised a large percentage of the population, children are almost completely missing in many current archaeological discourses. To remedy this, The Archaeology of Childhood aims to instigate interdisciplinary dialogues between archaeologists and other disciplines on the notion of childhood and children and to develop theoretical and methodological approaches to analyze the archaeological record in order to explore and understand children and their role in the formation of past cultures. Contributors consider how the notion of childhood can be expressed in artifacts and material records and examine how childhood is described in literary and historical sources of people from different regions and cultures. While we may never be able to reconstruct every last aspect of what childhood was like in the past, this volume argues that we can certainly bring children back into archaeological thinking and research, and correct many erroneous and gender-biased interpretations.
