The Early Homo Conundrum: Challenges and Potential Solutions

Stubby versus stabby: A preliminary analysis of canine microwear in primates: Implication for inferring ingestive behaviors
Molar and incisor microwear reflect aspects of food choice and ingestive behaviors in living primates and have both been used to infer the same for fossil samples. Canine microwear, however, has received less attention, perhaps because of the prominent role canines play in social display and because they are used as weapons–while outside of a few specialized cases, their involvement in diet related behaviors has not been obvious. Here, we posit t…
Sex-biased sampling may influence Homo naledi tooth size variation
Descriptive catalog of Homo naledi dental remains from the 2013 to 2015 excavations of the Dinaledi Chamber, site U.W. 101, within the Rising Star cave system, South Africa

Ancient teeth, phenetic affinities, and African hominins: Another look at where Homo naledi fits in
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 …
Body size, brain size, and sexual dimorphism in Homo naledi from the Dinaledi Chamber
Canine and incisor microwear in pitheciids and Ateles reflects documented patterns of tooth use
OBJECTIVES: Platyrrhine species differ in the extent to and the manner in which they use their incisors and canines during food ingestion. For example, Ateles uses its anterior teeth to process mechanically nondemanding soft fruits, while the sclerocarp-harvesting pitheciids rely extensively on these teeth to acquire and process more demanding foods. Pitheciids themselves vary in anterior tooth use, with the pitheciines (Cacajao, Chiropotes, and …

Premolar microwear and tooth use in Australopithecus afarensis
Evolution of the mandibular third premolar crown in early Australopithecus
Lucy” redux: A review of research on Australopithecus afarensis
In the 1970s, mid‐Pliocene hominin fossils were found at the sites of Hadar in Ethiopia and Laetoli in Tanzania. These samples constituted the first substantial evidence for hominins older than 3.0 Ma and were notable for some remarkable discoveries, such as the “Lucy” partial skeleton and the abundant remains from the A.L. 333 locality at Hadar and the hominin footprint trail at Laetoli. The Hadar and Laetoli fossils were ultimately assigned to …
