Bilateral asymmetry in the lower limbs in medieval humans and La Ferrassie Neandertals LF1 and LF2
L’asymétrie bilatérale des membres inférieurs peut fournir des informations sur les contraintes biomécaniques habituelles et les schémas de mobilité des populations anciennes. Les études précédentes ont généralement analysé les différents éléments du membre inférieur de manière isolée, ce qui a potentiellement négligé les signaux fonctionnels intégrés à l’échelle du membre. Nous présentons ici de nouvelles données sur l’asymétrie bilatérale chez …

Les sinus frontaux au cours de l'évolution humaine
Les sinus frontaux sont des cavités qui se situent à l’intérieur de l’os frontal, à la jonction entre le visage et la voûte crânienne, et à proximité du cerveau. Nous proposons l’étude la plus complète jamais réalisée de ces sinus, grâce à une méthodologie facile à mettre en œuvre et reproductible. La taille des sinus frontaux est corrélée à la taille du crâne, et en lien avec celle des reliefs osseux situés au-dessus des orbites, chez les chimpa…
Excessive asymmetry of the human endocast in the context of evolutionary changes in hominids
Human brain (especially the posterior part of the perisylvian region) reveals higher level of asymmetry than the brain in non-human primates and is likely to favour the appearance of specialized cognitive abilities in humans. Nevertheless, the factors leading to the appearance of pronounced brain asymmetry in the genus Homo and different brain structures among hominids are still unclear. The new END-ASYM project will investigate whether the cause…
Variation des sinus frontaux sur de larges échantillons chez les espèces actuelles des genres Pan, Gorilla et Homo
La pneumatisation de l’os frontal n’est pas ubiquiste chez tous les primates. Parmi les espèces actuelles, les sinus frontaux d’origine éthmoïdale ne sont présents que dans les genres Pan, Gorilla et chez Homo sapiens. Une méthodologie simple et reproductible permet la première grande étude de la forme, la taille et la variation bilatérale des sinus sur de grands échantillons de Pan paniscus, Pan troglodytes, Gorilla gorilla et de plusieurs popul…
The meaning of the shape of the frontal bone, facial retraction and prognathism for the degree of gracilisation of the supraorbital region in Homo sapiens
PaleoBRAIN: Ressusciter le cerveau d'Homo erectus et des Néandertaliens
La question de la correspondance entre les caractéristiques cérébrales et endocrâniennes est cruciale pour les applications en paléoneurologie et n’a jamais été abordée. Pour ce faire, le projet PaleoBRAIN, financé par l’ANR (ANR-20-CE27-0009), va étudier pour la première fois la corrélation entre la forme du cerveau et celle de l’endocrâne au sein d’un échantillon d’humains actuels en utilisant des acquisitions par imagerie à résonance magnétiqu…
Frontal sinus variation in extant species of the genera Pan, Gorilla
Frontal pneumatisation is not present in all primates, and among extant species, ethmoidally-derived frontal sinuses are present only in the genera Pan, Gorilla and Homo. A simple and repeatable method is described here to quantify variation in the shape, size and bilateral variation of the frontal sinuses. This has allowed the first large study of these variables, including analyses of large samples of P. paniscus, P. troglodytes, G. gorilla and…
Are entheseal changes and cross‐sectional properties associated with the shape of the upper limb
OBJECTIVES: Reconstruction of the activity of past human populations can be carried out using various skeletal markers; however, the relationship between these methods is not fully understood. Therefore, the main aim of this article is to analyze the relationship between entheseal changes, cross-sectional properties, and variability in the shape of the upper limb. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The analyzed material consisted of CT images of 71 right sca…
Bilateral asymmetry of the humerus in Neandertals, Australian aborigines and medieval humans
OBJECTIVES: Bilateral asymmetry of diaphyseal shape and size may be a reflection of relative activity levels and patterns of habitual biomechanical stress in the upper arms of Neandertals and Homo sapiens. The main purpose of our study was to assess the level of directional asymmetry of humeral cross sections in Neandertals, recent Australian aborigines, and medieval farmers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Indices of directional and absolute asymmetry (%…
Directional asymmetry of upper limbs in a medieval population from Poland: A combination of linear and geometric morphometrics
OBJECTIVES: Degrees of upper-limb bilateral asymmetry reflect habitual behavior and activity levels throughout life in human populations. The shoulder joint facilitates a wide range of combined motions due to the simultaneous motion of all three bones: clavicle, scapula, and humerus. Accordingly, we used three-dimensional geometric morphometrics to analyze shape differences in the glenoid cavity and linear morphometrics to obtain the degree of di…

The Vulture in the Sky and the Hominin on the Land: Three Million Years of Human-Vulture Interaction
Vultures and humans have been sympatric for millions of years and evidence from the archaeological and historical records suggests interdependence over long periods. Like other species, early hominins probably used these birds to locate carcasses in the landscape. With the evolution of large-bodied and more encephalized hominins, the quest for high-quality food would have intensified. Vultures used as beacons for meat may have been particularly i…
