It would have been a solid three-star "not bad but not terribly interesting" read if it weren't for the chapter full of eyerolling at the idea that physical anthropologists and archaeologists owe some respect to the bodies of dead indigenous people. I know this was published in the 90s and this sort of rhetoric was par for the course in much of the field back then (not that it's all better now) but...yeesh.
