The aim of this book is to reconstruct the patterns of prehistoric exchange and human movements in the Upper Palaeolithic and Neolithic of Northeast Asia. The proposed book is the first comprehensive summary of obsidian provenance and issues related to prehistoric human contacts/migrations and early seafaring in Northeast Asia. The particular importance of this book is that obsidian is used as a commodity to establish the movements of ancient people that is almost impossible to do using traditional archaeological approaches. The book contains updated information on the vast region with a multitude of obsidian sources and artefacts, based on the author’s first-hand knowledge generated in the last 30+ years. It makes this book a unique source of information derived from Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese publications (as well as English summaries) for comparison between different parts of Northeast Asia. 0aPrehistoric peoples. 0aUnderwater archaeology. 0aCultural property. 0aArchaeology. 0aEnvironmental archaeology.14aPrehistoric Archaeology.24aMaritime Archaeology.24aArchaeology and Heritage.24aEnvironmental Archaeology.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978981975137208iPrinted edition:z978981975139608iPrinted edition:z9789819751402 0aThe Science of Human History in Asia and the Pacific,x2522-8889 ;v240uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-97-5138-9
