This handbook, written by prominent international experts in mummy studies, offers readers a comprehensive guide to new understandings of the field's most recent trends and developments. It provides invaluable information on the health states and pathologies of historic populations and civilizations, as well as their socio-cultural and religious characteristics. Addressing the developments in mummy studies that have taken place over the past two decades which have been neglected for as long a time the authors excavate the ground-breaking research that has transformed scientific and cultural knowledge of our ancient predecessors. The handbook investigates the many new biotechnological tools that are routinely applied in mummy studies, ranging from morphological inspection and endoscopy to minimally invasive radiological techniques that are used to assess states of preservation. It also looks at the paleoparasitological and pathological approaches that have been employed to reconstruct the lifestyles and pathologic conditions of ancient populations, and considers the techniques that have been applied to enhance biomedical knowledge, such as craniofacial reconstruction, chemical analysis, stable isotope analysis and ancient DNA analysis. This interdisciplinary handbook will appeal to academics in historical, anthropological, archaeological and biological sciences, and will serve as an indispensable companion to researchers and students interested in worldwide mummy studies. 001440997 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 2, 2021). 001440997 650_0 $$aMummies$$vHandbooks, manuals, etc. 001440997 650_6 $$aMomies$$vGuides, manuels, etc. 001440997 655_7 $$aHandbooks and manuals.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423877 001440997 655_7 $$aHandbooks and manuals.$$2lcgft 001440997 655_7 $$aGuides et manuels.$$2rvmgf 001440997 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001440997 7001_ $$aShin, Dong Hoon,$$eeditor. 001440997 7001_ $$aBianucci, Raffaella,$$eeditor. 001440997 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tHandbook of mummy studies.$$dSingapore : Springer, 2021$$z9811533555$$z9789811533556$$w(OCoLC)1137861436 001440997 852__ $$bebk 001440997 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-15-3354-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001440997 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1440997$$pGLOBAL_SET 001440997 980__ $$aBIB 001440997 980__ $$aEBOOK 001440997 982__ $$aEbook 001440997 983__ $$aOnline 001440997 994__ $$a92$$bISE
