Neanderthal teeth from moula‐guercy, Ardèche, France
Here we describe dental remains from a Neanderthal fossil assemblage from Moula‐Guercy, France. Our report demonstrates that the Moula‐Guercy hominid remains contribute important morphological, developmental, and behavioral data to understanding Neanderthal evolutionary history. We include gross comparative morphological descriptions and enamel surface microstructure and microwear data. These teeth reveal numerous characteristics that are diagnos…
Neanderthal axial and appendicular remains from Moula‐Guercy, Ardèche, France
Excavations carried out during the 1990s at Moula‐Guercy cave Ardèche, France, yielded 108 hominid specimens dating to 100–120 Ka. In this paper, we describe and compare the 39 axial and appendicular specimens not including hand and foot bones. Among these remains are a large adult femur, several clavicles, a likely antimeric pair of radial heads, and a nearly complete superior pubic ramus. Analyses of this material indicate a clear affinity with…
Neanderthal hand and foot remains from Moula‐Guercy, Ardèche, France
The hand and foot remains from Moula‐Guercy cave (Ardèche, France) comprise 24 specimens of Eemian age (ca. 120 ka). The specimens include primarily complete elements, which are rare among the Moula‐Guercy postcrania. The hand remains have several characteristic Neanderthal traits including a laterally facing (parasagittally oriented) second metacarpal‐capitate articulation, a short styloid process, a wide proximal articular surface on the third …
