The first comprehensive critical analysis of the practices and consequences of ancient DNA research.

This edited collection, Critical Perspectives on Ancient DNA, presents a critical enquiry into the much-hyped "ancient DNA revolution" in archaeology. Offering the first comprehensive and in-depth scholarly analysis of the practices and effects of archaeogenetics, editors Daniel Strand, Anna Källén, and Charlotte Mulcare, along with other renowned scholars from Europe and the United States, address a host of questions, such as: What happens with our understanding of the past when archaeology is married to genetic science? What cultural forms and historical narratives are generated by ancient DNA (aDNA) research, and what energies could they unleash?
Taking a multidisciplinary and multisite approach to the topic, these essays offer important insights into the epistemological, ethical, and political consequences around and beyond the scientific analysis of aDNA. As such, Critical Perspectives on Ancient DNA provides a timely and much-needed critical engagement with the rapidly growing field of aDNA research-a field that, while already having a notable impact on how we view the past in research, museums, and popular media-had not yet been subject to thorough critical scrutiny.
