Title: God-Apes and Fossil Men
Description: "Until recently, the scientific study of the prehistoric peoples of India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and the south Asian borderlands was limited to cursory comments in popular literature about archaeological discoveries. Now, pioneering a new approach involving the integration of archaeological, paleontological, ecological, and anthropological data, Kenneth A. R. Kennedy offers important new theories on the origins of humans in South Asia that highlight the significance of anthropoid ape fossils recovered from the Siwalik hills (the "God-Apes"). Kennedy's careful detailing of the story of human life and his unique theoretical approach combine to offer a broad survey of the prehistoric cultures of the Indian subcontinent from Paleolithic to Iron Age times that should serve as a model for future studies of ancient peoples and places."--BOOK JACKET.
