Prepublication praise:
"This comprehensive volume on Italian prehistory provides a wealth
of information that will improve readers' access to the
archaeological and faunal records which have been gathered by
several generations of Italian researchers and will undoubtedly
serve many scholars and students who are either not at all or only
partially familiar with Italian prehistory. The author produces a
most interesting picture of Paleolithic Italy."
(Ofer Bar-Yosef, Harvard University)
"A must for college and university programs offering undergraduate
and graduate courses in the Paleolithic[...]"
(Choice, 39:9, 2002)
"Magnifico! Bravissimo! Margherita Mussi has done the virtually
"impossible" and done it very well (and in a language that is not
her native tongue): a book that thoroughly, intelligently
synthesizes the Pleistocene prehistory of Italy.[...] This is a
landmark book.[...] If you read one work on the Italian
Paleolithic, Mussi's magnus opus is it."
(Journal of Anthropological Research, 58, 2002)
