Taxonomic revision of the SK 15 mandible based on bone and tooth structural organization
short molar roots) typically found in specimens of Paranthropus aethiopicus, Paranthropus boisei, and Paranthropus robustus. In particular, SK 15 differs markedly in size and morphology from mandibular remains of P. robustus from Swartkrans Member 2. We thus tentatively attribute SK 15 to Paranthropus capensis, a more gracile species of Paranthropus than the other three currently recognized species of this genus and discuss the implications for t…
"L'enfant de Taung" a 100 ans: Un siècle de recherche sur le cerveau d'Australopithecus
En 1925, Raymond A. Dart publie sa description de "l’enfant de Taung" dans le journal Nature. Découvert un an plus tôt, ce spécimen préserve un moulage naturel du volume endocrânien (endocrâne) et de précieux détails sur l’organisation du cerveau d’Australopithecus africanus. Dans cette présentation, nous proposons d’analyser comment la découverte et la publication de "l’enfant de Taung" a bouleversé notre vision de l’évolution humaine et initié …
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…
Cochlear morphology of Indonesian Homo erectus from Sangiran
Reassessment of the TM 1517 odonto‐postcranial assemblage from Kromdraai B, South Africa, and the maturational pattern of Paranthropus robustus
In the hominin fossil record, there are few unambiguously associated craniodental and postcranial remains sampling immature individuals, an essential condition for assessing the taxon-specific maturational patterns. Our findings corroborate the original association of the craniodental and postcranial remains representing the P. robustus type specimen. As with other Plio-Pleistocene hominins, the odonto-postcranial maturational pattern of TM 1517 …
New fossil remains of Homo naledi from the Lesedi Chamber, South Africa
The Rising Star cave system has produced abundant fossil hominin remains within the Dinaledi Chamber, representing a minimum of 15 individuals attributed to Homo naledi. Further exploration led to the discovery of hominin material, now comprising 131 hominin specimens, within a second chamber, the Lesedi Chamber. The Lesedi Chamber is far separated from the Dinaledi Chamber within the Rising Star cave system, and represents a second depositional …
