East Africa has special meaning for Homo-sapiens. As far as we know, early humans first experimented here with the technologies, social relationships, and foodgetting strategies that eventually became the survival repertoire of modern people. This volume imparts an appreciation of the many facets of East Africa's cultural and archaeological diversity over the last 2,000 years. It brings together chapters on East African archaeology, many by African-born archaeologists who review what is known, present new research, and pinpoint issues of debate and anomaly in the relatively poorly known prehistory of the region.
