Hominin phylogenetics: Methods and insights
Les analyses phylogénétiques des fossiles d’hominines sont capitales pour notre compréhension de l’évolution humaine. Cette revue de littérature détaille les bases méthodologiques sur lesquelles ces analyses ont été menées dans le but d’encourager et/ou de proposer des améliorations méthodologiques. Des tendances sont mises en lumière, comme l’utilisation habituelle de spécimens individuels comme Unités Taxonomiques Opérationnelles pour les pério…
Assessing inter-observer reliability to support availability of osteometric measurement data from the Olivier collection
Le domaine de l’anthropométrie joue un rôle crucial dans le développement de méthodes permettant de reconstituer le profil biologique des restes squelettiques. Il est donc essentiel de garantir la précision et la fiabilité des données ostéométriques pour la validation méthodologique. Cette étude évalue la répétabilité et la fiabilité inter-observateurs des mesures squelettiques recueillies pour la publication de la collection Olivier. Quatre obse…

An integrative study of new environmental and cultural data from the Hoabinhian of Laang Spean Cave (Cambodia) including modern human remains
Although the Hoabinhian culture is renowned for its unifacial pebble tools and its discovery dates back more than a century, only a handful of sites provide complete information on this period. The site of Laang Spean, in Cambodia, has recently been described as a burial cave for the Neolithic period, but it was previously known as an emblematic Hoabinhian site for Cambodia. More comprehensive studies indicate that it offers a wide window onto th…
Quelles méthodes phylogénétiques pour reconstituer les relations de parenté des espèces récentes du genre Homo
methods to rebuild evolutionary relationships of recent Homo species
Post-natal mandibular growth patterns in Neanderthal and Homo sapiens through a geometric morphometrics approach
Research in hominid growth and development studies serves to understand species specific evolutionary patterns and phylogenetic relationships between species. A particular focus is put on the investigation of the emergence of modern patterns of growth and development. Neanderthals, due to their morphological and phylogenetic proximity with modern humans are often used in these comparative studies. Research questions have focused on the moment in …
Standardization procedure to provide a unified multi-method elemental compositional dataset, application to ferruginous colouring matters from Namibia
Curation of archaeological materials often leads to carrying out multi-analytical methodologies that combine non-invasive and invasive elemental analyses. Such materials are often analysed with different techniques. It results in the production of complementary but apparently non-compatible compositional datasets that cannot be easily compared. In the present paper, we propose to compare results acquired on geological ferruginous colouring matter…
Further analyses of the structural organization of Homo luzonensis teeth: Evolutionary implications
The species Homo luzonensis has recently been described based on a set of dental and postcranial elements found at Callao Cave (Northern Luzon, Philippines) and dated to at least 50-67 ka. Seven postcanine maxillary teeth are attributed to this taxon, five of them belonging to the same individual (CCH6) and representing the holotype of H. luzonensis, whereas the isolated upper premolar CCH8 and the upper third molar CCH9 are paratypes of the spec…
Intégration polynésienne au Vanuatu (Mélanésie): Étude de cas sur les rapports entre société préexistante et individus migrants
Certaines sociétés humaines modernes de l’archipel du Vanuatu (Mélanésie) présentent des traits culturels polynésiens et parlent des langues polynésiennes. Ces caractéristiques diffèrent de celles des autres sociétés présentes dans l’archipel qui sont apparentés aux influences mélanésiennes régionales. On suppose que des migrations polynésiennes auraient particulièrement contribué à la formation de ces sociétés « polynésiennes » du Vanuatu lors d…
Data pretreatment and multivariate analyses for ochre sourcing: Application to Leopard Cave (Erongo, Namibia)
Homo luzonensis: Principales Caractéristiques Et Implications Pour l'Histoire Évolutionnaire Du Genre
La nouvelle espèce Homo luzonensis a été décrite en 2019 à partir d’un assemblage constitué de treize éléments fossiles découverts dans la grotte de Callao (île de Luzon, Philippines) en 2007, 2011 et 2015. La datation directe de deux de ces fossiles par les séries de l’uranium indique des âges minimums respectifs de 50 000 et 67 000 ans. Dans cette présentation, nous montrons que ces spécimens présentent une combinaison de caractéristiques morph…

La paléoneurologie est un champ de recherche important dans le cadre des études sur l’évolution humaine. Les variations de taille et de forme de l’endocrâne sont en effet utiles pour différencier les différentes espèces d’homininés, alors que les asymétries cérébrales sont reliées au comportement et aux capacités cognitives. Pourtant, notre connaissance de l’évolution et de la variation du cerveau d’Homo sapiens, depuis l’apparition de notre espè…

Technical Note: Anatomic identification of isolated modern human molars: Testing procrustes aligned outlines as a standardization procedure for elliptic fourier analysis
The determination of the precise position of permanent first and second modern human molars, following standard tooth identification criteria, is often difficult because of their morphological similarities. Here, we proposed to evaluate the suitability of two‐dimensional crown contour shape analysis in achieving this objective. The method was tested separately on 180 first and second maxillary molars (UM) and 180 first and second mandibular molar…
Diversité taxonomique des Hominidés fossiles en Asie: De Nouvelles Méthodes Pour Une Vieille Question
The objectives of this study were to determine whether the fossils discovered in Asia belong to one or several taxa, to identify them and to compare the distances between them to the distances between actual groups and species of anthropoids.For this purpose, we have used new geometric morphometric methods. Twenty three dimensional landmarks were digitized on 110 skulls: 18 fossils from Asia dated between 1,150,000 years and 6,000 BC, 31 modern H…

An allometric study of Macaca fascicularis from the Late Pleistocene deposits at the Ille site (Philippines): A possible model for Southeast Asian Dwarf Hominins
Recent discoveries of taxonomically challenging Southeast Asian dwarf hominins from Liang Bua in Indonesia and the Callao Cave in the Philippines have enabled us to investigate the general tendency towards dwarfism or gigantism already observed in endemic insular animals. One current hypothesis suggests that the pygmy human phenotype is the result of evolutionary selection in rainforest environments. In this paper we test the hypothesis that dwar…

Fossil hominins, quadrupedal primates and the origin of human bipedalism: A 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the Primate hamate
This note illustrates the value of studying non-human primates, especially quadrupedal primates, in order to investigate the origins of human bipedalism. Two distinct hypotheses postulate that hominins and African great apes share a common ancestor predominantly engaged in specialized forms of locomotion, i.e., arboreal orthogrady (climbing or arboreal bipedalism) on the one hand and semiterrestrial locomotion (which includes climbing and quadrup…

Les hiatus chronologiques du registre fossile et les incertitudes entourant certaines decouvertes anciennes sont en grande partie responsables de ces debats. La mise au jour recente de plusieurs H.

Mijares4, “Small Size” in the Philippine Human Fossil Record: Is It Meaningful for a Better Understanding of the Evolutionary History of the Negritos?, Human Biology, Vol. 85, No. 1-3, Revisiting the “Negrito” Hypothesis (February-June 2013), pp. 45-65
“Small Size” in the Philippine Human Fossil Record: Is It Meaningful for a Better Understanding of the Evolutionary History of the Negritos
"Pygmy populations" are recognized in several places over the world, especially in Western Africa and in Southeast Asia (Philippine "negritos," for instance). Broadly defined as "small-bodied Homo sapiens" (compared with neighboring populations), their origins and the nature of the processes involved in the maintenance of their phenotype over time are highly debated. Major results have been recently obtained from population genetics on present-da…
