A recommendation of: Aline Galland, Ignacio Clemente-Conte, Jean-Renaud Boisserie, Anne Delagnes How depositional environments impact the microwear preservation of quartz artifacts: insights from the Oldowan of the Shungura Formation (Ethiopia) https://doi.org/10.31233/osf.io/9k8p3_v3
How depositional environments impact the microwear preservation of quartz artifacts
The function of Oldowan tools is a key aspect of early hominin subsistence in eastern Africa. The rarity of the sites, the preservation of the assemblages and raw materials are limiting factors in the functional study of Early Pleistocene assemblages. The archaeological occurrences from Member F of the Shungura Formation (Ethiopia) have a precise chronostratigraphic framework (2.324 ± 0.020 Ma to 2.271 ± 0.041 Ma), a detailed reconstruction of de…
Uniform, circular, and shallow enamel pitting in hominins
This study explores a particular form of enamel pitting originally identified in Paranthropus robustus. We call this uniform, circular, and shallow (UCS) pitting to distinguish it from more irregular and nonuniform defects often associated with enamel hypoplasia. We pose the hypothesis that UCS pitting is unique to the genus Paranthropus. We test this by investigating hominin dental remains from the ca. 3.4 Ma to ca. 1.1 Ma fossiliferous sequence…
Évolution des hominines dans les paysages changeants du Rift Est Africain
En Afrique orientale, la période de transition Pliocène-Pléistocène est remarquable du point de vue paléoanthropologique puisqu’elle correspond à la fois à plusieurs évènements majeurs : 1) la disparition des australopithèques et l’apparition des genres Homo et Paranthropus, et 2) la première expansion des hominines en Eurasie peu après. Cependant, la compréhension des modalités de dispersion et de diversification des hominines africains bute sur…
Taxonomic assignments for the 3.4 Ma to 1.1 Ma hominin postcanine teeth from the Usno Formation and the Shungura Formation, Lower Omo Valley, Ethiopia
Sediments of the Usno Formation and the Shungura Formation date from ca. 3.75 Ma to 1.09 Ma, during which time the genus Homo appeared, Australopithecus disappeared, and the eastern African robust hominins did both. We performed an in-depth analysis of size, shape, and morphology of 108 Omo permanent postcanine dental specimens. First, we compared linear dimensions against a comparative dataset of 809 teeth from 359 specimens representing 10 homi…

The anatomy of the hindlimb of Theropithecus brumpti (Cercopithecidae, Papionini)
La première mondialisation. Quelle place pour l’Afrique dans l’histoire évolutive et biogéographique du genre Homo
L’Afrique a hébergé notre évolution jusqu’à l’apparition du genre Homo et sa conquête de l’Eurasie il y a deux millions d’années environ. Et après, que s’est-il passé ? Les actes suivants ont-ils pris place en Eurasie, comme sous-entendu par l’expression « sortie d’Afrique » pour désigner cette conquête ? Dans cette contribution, les principales phases de cette « sortie » sont récapitulées sur la base des données fossiles, archéologiques et génét…

Climatic and Environmental Challenges
In the prospect of the COP21 held in Paris in December 2015, the French Centre for Ethiopian Studies (CFEE) organised a scientific conference on environmental and climatic changes in the horn of Africa, with a decisive financial support of the Institut français (Fonds d’Alembert), Paris. The conference was part of a larger event, called “the Road to Paris” and organised by the French Embassy to Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa Regional Environment…

Évolutions tectonique, environnementale et humaine dans le triangle afar
Tectonic, environmental and human evolution in the Afar triangle ; This review describes the evolution of the Afar Region, documented through abundant geological and palaeontological literature. The region constitutes the heart of the Arabo-African rift system. Its history has been characterized by intense tectonic and volcanic activities. These favoured the fossilization of abundant biological and cultural evidence from the Miocene (ca. 11 Ma) u…
Ardipithecus ramidus and the birth of humanity
International audience
Macrovertebrate Paleontology and the Pliocene Habitat of Ardipithecus ramidus
A diverse assemblage of large mammals is spatially and stratigraphically associated with Ardipithecus ramidus at Aramis. The most common species are tragelaphine antelope and colobine monkeys. Analyses of their postcranial remains situate them in a closed habitat. Assessment of dental mesowear, microwear, and stable isotopes from these and a wider range of abundant associated larger mammals indicates that the local habitat at Aramis was predomina…

Systématique phylogénétique des Hippopotamidae fossiles d'Afrique
Bien qu'ils soient très bien représentés dans les sites du Plio-Pléistocène d'Afrique, les Hippopotamidae constituent un groupe peu étudié. Ainsi, la systématique de cette famille est encore largement débattue. L'origine des Hippopotamidae, tout d'abord, est incertaine : sont-ils issus des Anthracotheriidae ou bien des Tayassuidae ? Ensuite, le genre Hexaprotodon, le plus important en nombre d'espèce doit vraisemblablement être abandonné, car, d'…
