The Story of Human Movement from Bipedalism to the Culturization of Movement [PDF]

This paper aims to explain the story of human movement from bipedalism to the acculturation of movement. The ability to walk upright on two legs (bipedalism) is the basis of human cultivation of movement.

Bipedalism is a Balancing Act: Talus Landmarking in Facultative Bipedal Primates [PDF]

Obligate bipedal locomotion, mandatorily walking on two legs, is vastly important as it is the fundamental precursor to the human lineage; it precedes tool usage and language.

Genital Concealment and Bipedalism: A Structural Hypothesis on the Evolution of Human Sociosexual Signaling [PDF]

Why do humans conceal their genitals while other primates do not? This article proposes that bipedalism in early hominins led to a structural reorganization of the body, including the ventral repositioning and concealment of female genitals.

Locomotion in extant and extinct nonhuman Hominidae: Implications for hominin bipedalism [PDF]

The purpose of this thesis is to examine extinct and extant nonhuman Hominidae locomotion, through analysis of observational and fossil postcranial research. The extant genera reviewed were Pongo, Gorilla, and Pan. Knucklewalking is the primary locomotor
