This beautifully illustrated monograph addresses - for the first time - the complete assemblage of the Mladec caves finds, including the human cranial, post cranial, teeth and jaw fragments of several individuals as well as faunal remains and archaeological objects. Leading scientists present their results, obtained with innovative techniques such as DNA analysis, 3D-morphometry and isotope analysis, which are of great importance for further discussions on both human evolution and archaeological issues.
