Evolutionary anatomy of the metacarpal bones from El Sidrón Neandertal sample (Asturias, Spain)
The evolutionary transformation of the hominin hand is of central interest due to its critical role in mediating interaction with both the physical and cultural environments. Beyond its functional significance, however, hand morphology can also reflect broader anatomical trends at the organism level. This study analyzes 31 metacarpal remains from the Neandertal site of El Sidrón (Asturias, Spain), using a combination of discrete morphological tra…
The axis (C2) from El Sidrón and its implications for Neanderthal upper cervical spine form
Short Communications
New insights into the Neanderthal pelvis morphology based on a partial os coxae from El Sidrón (Asturias, Spain)
The Neanderthal pelvis exhibits distinctive features compared to modern humans, including wider and more flared iliac blades, a more anteriorly positioned sacrum, and a longer and thinner, outwardly oriented pubic bone. Each new addition to the pelvic fossil record is significant for enhancing our understanding of Neanderthal morphology and variation. Here, we present SD-1663, the most complete adult os coxae fragment recovered from the El Sidrón…
The dentition of a new adult Neanderthal individual from Grotte Mandrin, France
Grotte Mandrin is located in the middle Rhône River Valley, in Mediterranean France, and has yielded 11 Pleistocene archeological and paleoanthropological layers (ranging from the oldest layer J to the youngest layer B) dating from Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5 to MIS 3. We report here the nearly complete dentition of an adult Neanderthal individual, nicknamed 'Thorin,' associated to the last phase of the Post-Neronian II, in layer B2 (∼44.50-42.2…
First presence of Macaca sylvanus at the late Early Pleistocene of Barranc de la Boella (La Mina locality, Francolí Basin, NE Iberia)
This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 891529
Updating Neanderthals
Neanderthals: Anatomy, genes, and evolution
The study of the lower limb entheses in the Neanderthal sample from El Sidrón (Asturias, Spain): How much musculoskeletal variability did Neanderthals accumulate
Analyses of the neandertal patellae from El Sidrón (Asturias, Spain) with implications for the evolution of body form in Homo
Comparative anatomy and 3D geometric morphometrics of the El Sidrón atlases (C1)
A 3D form comparative analysis of the Neandertal glenoid fossa in the context of the genus Homo
New Neandertal wrist bones from El Sidrón, Spain (1994-2009)
The costal remains of the El Sidrón Neanderthal site (Asturias, northern Spain) and their importance for understanding Neanderthal thorax morphology
The study of the Neanderthal thorax has attracted the attention of the scientific community for more than a century. It is agreed that Neanderthals have a more capacious thorax than modern humans, but whether this was caused by a medio-lateral or an antero-posterior expansion of the thorax is still debated, and is key to understanding breathing biomechanics and body shape in Neanderthals. The fragile nature of ribs, the metameric structure of the…
Adult Neandertal clavicles from the El Sidrón site (Asturias, Spain) in the context of Homo pectoral girdle evolution
A geometric morphometrics comparative analysis of Neandertal humeri (epiphyses-fused) from the El Sidrón cave site (Asturias, Spain)
The relevance of the first ribs of the El Sidrón site (Asturias, Spain) for the understanding of the Neandertal thorax
Les Néandertaliens d’El Sidrón (Asturies, Espagne). Actualisation d’un nouvel échantillon
Genetic evidence for patrilocal mating behavior among Neandertal groups
The remains of 12 Neandertal individuals have been found at the El Sidrón site (Asturias, Spain), consisting of six adults, three adolescents, two juveniles, and one infant. Archaeological, paleontological, and geological evidence indicates that these individuals represent all or part of a contemporaneous social group of Neandertals, who died at around the same time and later were buried together as a result of a collapse of an underground karst.…
Excavation protocol of bone remains for Neandertal DNA analysis in El Sidrón Cave (Asturias, Spain)
Dental tissue proportions and enamel thickness in Neandertal and modern human molars
Paleobiology and comparative morphology of a late Neandertal sample from El Sidrón, Asturias, Spain
Fossil evidence from the Iberian Peninsula is essential for understanding Neandertal evolution and history. Since 2000, a new sample ≈43,000 years old has been systematically recovered at the El Sidrón cave site (Asturias, Spain). Human remains almost exclusively compose the bone assemblage. All of the skeletal parts are preserved, and there is a moderate occurrence of Middle Paleolithic stone tools. A minimum number of eight individuals are repr…
