Abstract

The article discusses Aleš Hrdlička's final research expeditions to the Aleutian and Commander Islands in Alaska. Hrdlička, a prominent biological anthropologist, focused on the biological characteristics of Native peoples in the Americas and their relationships to other populations. His work in the Aleutians led to insights on population replacement and migration patterns. While his research was foundational, it lacked archeological rigor by modern standards. The article highlights the legacy of Hrdlička's expeditions and their impact on subsequent studies in the region. [Extracted from the article]
