AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Butler describes the state of the skeletal material from site E71K1 and what can be learned from them. She then compares these remains to other remains from Sahaba, Sudan; Wadi Halfa, Sudan; and Kom Ombo, Egypt. She reports 'all known skeletal material supports an hypothesis of a morphologically homogenous population in the Nile Valley during the Late Pleistocene.' (page 183).
