The book explores the significant socioeconomic transformations in late prehistoric China during the transition from the middle to late Holocene. It examines the unique environmental and ecological conditions of the Highlands, Lowlands, and Coastal areas, highlighting how these influenced diverse lifeways and settlement patterns. By analyzing extensive environmental and archaeological data, the author argues that environmental conditions and subsistence adaptations were crucial in driving the increased complexity and emergence of regional civilizations during this period.
