With a history spanning 130,000 years but rapidly losing their land and traditional ways of life, this book offers a unique opportunity to capture the lifestyle of a declining population. Blurton Jones interweaves data from ecology, demography and evolutionary ecology to present a comprehensive analysis of the Hadza foragers. Discussion centres on expansion of the adaptationist perspective beyond topics customarily studied in human behavioural ecology, to interpret a wider range of anthropological concepts. Analysing behavioural aspects, with a specific focus on relationships and their wider impact on the population, this book reports the demographic consequences of different patterns of marriage and the availability of helpers such as husbands, children, and grandmothers. Essential for researchers and graduate students alike, this book will challenge preconceptions of human sociobiology"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Hatsa (African people) $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Hatsa (African people) $x Population. 650 0 $a Hunting and gathering societies $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. 650 0 $a Demographic anthropology $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. 650 0 $a Human ecology $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. 650 0 $a Sociobiology $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. 650 0 $a Human behavior $x Environmental aspects $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. $z Eyasi, Lake, Region. 651 0 $a Eyasi, Lake, Region (Tanzania) $x Social life and customs. 651 0 $a Eyasi, Lake, Region (Tanzania) $x Environmental conditions. 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in biological and evolutionary anthropology. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n98102160 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210024010.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7244037AF50B11E7A6193F6E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
