Diploic vessels and computed tomography: Segmentation and comparison in modern humans and fossil hominids
OBJECTIVES: The diploic channels appear to be more developed in humans than in nonhuman primates, suggesting they may be relevant in evolutionary biology. This study is aimed at providing a segmentation procedure for diploic channels and CT analysis, a quantitative description of their variation in modern humans, and paleoanthropological case-studies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: CT data were used for the 2D and 3D visualization, rendering, and measure…
A paleoneurological survey of Homo erectus endocranial metrics
Geometric variation of the frontal squama in the genus homo: Frontal bulging and the origin of modern human morphology
The majority of studies of frontal bone morphology in paleoanthropology have analyzed the frontal squama and the browridge as a single unit, mixing information from different functional elements. Taking into account that the bulging of the frontal bone is often described as a species‐specific trait of Homo sapiens , in this article we analyze variation in the midsagittal profile of the genus Homo , focusing on the frontal squama alone, using land…
Quantifying patterns of endocranial heat distribution: Brain geometry and thermoregulation
OBJECTIVES: The mechanisms involved in brain thermoregulation are still poorly known, and many disagreements still exist concerning the selective cooling capacity of the brain volume. This issue has also been discussed in human evolution and paleoneurology, speculating on possible changes associated with hominid encephalization. Although the vascular system is supposed to be the main component responsible for thermoregulation, brain geometry also…
