 JAR Tribute to J. Desmond Clark
Desmond Clark was the towering figure who in the 1960s, together with Clark Howell, co-founded the holistic, interdisciplinary field of paleoanthropology and was one its premier practitioners for over 60 years, with indefatigable and seminal field research not only throughout Africa, but also in Syria, India and China.
The list of Clark’s publications is non-pareil; they cover Africa from Tropic to Tropic (and beyond), ranging in subject matter from ethnoarcheological to paleontological, from lithic to ceramic, from Oldowan to Iron Age.
His copious field reports remain almost as important sources of information on whole vast regions as his major monographs (the fact that he completed The Kalambo Falls Prehistoric Site volume series and--despite near-blindness--saw the last one published before his death, is one of the most extraordinary feats in archeological publication ever).
