Morphometrics and phylogenetics
Masticatory loading and bone adaptation in the supraorbital torus of developing macaques
Research on the evolution and adaptive significance of primate craniofacial morphologies has focused on adult, fully developed individuals. Here, we investigate the possible relationship between the local stress environment arising from masticatory loadings and the emergence of the supraorbital torus in the developing face of the crab‐eating macaque Macaca fascicularis . By using finite element analysis (FEA), we are able to evaluate the hypothes…

Human Biology
Studies of craniofacial development and evolution
In this paper we review the basic mechanisms underlying the post‐natal growth of the cranium and consider two recent advances in methodology which offer the prospect of improving our ability to study growth changes in the skull. Recent advances in techniques for the study of craniofacial remodelling are combined with a numerical approach to the study of shape changes, the thin plate spline, in order to examine the correspondence between the spati…
