| Abstract: |
The book contextualises the complexity of understanding prehistoric human traits and behaviour in relation to technology that was required to successfully conduct intentional sea crossings. The authors concisely and coherently present key themes in seafaring, exploration, and colonisation. They discuss the commonly accepted notions in detail while incorporating the latest studies from both the Mediterranean and ISEA, focusing on connecting the important fossil and artefactual evidence in both regions to discuss the antiquity of seafaring, whether it be accidental or deliberate.
