Despite the obvious geographic importance of eastern Asia in human migration, its discussion in the context of the emergence and dispersal of modern humans has been rare. Emergence and Diversity of Modern Human Behavior in Paleolithic Asia focuses long-overdue scholarly attention on this under-studied area of the world. Arising from a 2011 symposium sponsored by the National Museum of Nature and Science in Tokyo, this book gathers the work of archaeologists from the Pacific Rim of Asia, Australia, and North America, to address the relative lack of attention given to the emergence of modern human behavior as manifested in Asia during the worldwide dispersal from Africa.

This is a collection of papers in honour of Prof. V. N. Misra, on the occasion of his 70th birthday, and in celebration of a career in Indian archaeology spanning nearly half a century. All the papers included are based on the Ph.D. dissertations of the contributors, divided into two parts - part one covers the basics and theory of the thesis, while part two looks at changes and improvements that the author would have made if he had been carrying out the same research today. The 17 papers cover the period from the Palaeolithic to the early historic age in India, with one on the early historic period in Bangladesh (Rahman). They cover a range of regions, cultural periods and disciplines; including prehistory, protohistory, and early historic, with one paper on archaeozoology and one on ethnoarchaeology (Thomas and Ansari).
