Gingival eruption sequences of permanent teeth in early hominids
Gingival eruption of the permanent teeth of Australopithecus, Paranthropus , and early Homo , diagnosed from enamel scratches and facets, is similar save for two sequences: eruption of the canines relative to the premolars which may be sexually dimorphic; and agenesis of M3 with delayed eruption of M2, first seen in Homo at two million years. Gingival eruption sequences are similar also for early and modern Homo , except that in some individuals …
Dietary Adaptations of Australopithecus and Early Homo
Did La Ferrassie I Use His Teeth as a Tool? [and Comments and Reply]
Ten years ago, in CURRENT ANTHROPOLOGY, Brace advanced the hypothesis that the classic Neandertals were not evolutionary dead ends, but rather represented populations that evolved into modern man. Brace's selective mechanism to account for the supposed reduction of the classic Neandertal dentition and face was founded on the assumption that the rounding wear on Neandertal incisors resulted from extensive use of these teeth as tools. In this paper…
Approximal grooving of teeth
Approximal grooving of teeth is a form of tooth wear seen in some fossil hominids (Neandertal Man and Pekin Man) and in some primitive peoples (Bushmen, Australian aborigines and American Indians). Previous workers have claimed the grooves were produced either by an acid secreted from the gum or by constant probings with a tooth‐pick. The purpose of this paper is to refute these hypotheses, and to suggest from observations on the morphology of th…
Three Weeks Equals Thirty Weeks?‐A Report on an Experimental Intensive January Language Course
The effectiveness of intensive language programs of such organizations as the Peace Corps and The Experiment in International Living has often been attributed to the motivation of an imminent overseas experience. Forty‐seven students from colleges and universities on the 4–1–4 calendar participated in an intensive language program in January 1971 at The Experiment's School for International Training. None were proceeding overseas at the end of th…
