New fossil hominins from the Upper Laetolil Beds, Laetoli, Tanzania
Adaptation to suspensory locomotion in Australopithecus sediba
Inferring the use of forelimb suspensory locomotion by extinct primate species via shape exploration of the ulna
Geometric Morphometrics and Virtual Anthropology
Geometric morphometric methods have been increasingly used in paleoanthropology in the last two decades, lending greater power to the analysis and interpretation of the human fossil record. More recently the advent of the wide use of computed tomography and surface scanning, implemented in combination with geometric morphometrics (GM), characterizes a new approach, termed Virtual Anthropology (VA). These methodological advances have led to a numb…
New Neanderthal remains from Mani peninsula, Southern Greece
The correspondence between proximal phalanx morphology and locomotion
Phalanges are considered to be highly informative in the reconstruction of extinct primate locomotor behavior since these skeletal elements directly interact with the substrate during locomotion. Variation in shaft curvature and relative phalangeal length has been linked to differences in the degree of suspension and overall arboreal locomotor activities. Building on previous work, this study investigated these two skeletal characters in a compar…
Skeletal correlates of quadrupedalism and climbing in the anthropoid forelimb
Brain structure variation in great apes, with attention to the mountain gorilla ( Gorilla beringei beringei )
This report presents data regarding the brain structure of mountain gorillas ( Gorilla beringei beringei ) in comparison with other great apes. Magnetic resonance (MR) images of three mountain gorilla brains were obtained with a 3T scanner, and the volume of major neuroanatomical structures (neocortical gray matter, hippocampus, thalamus, striatum, and cerebellum) was measured. These data were included with our existing database that includes 23 …
