Comparative Kinesiology of the Human Body, 2020
Bipedalism is the ability to stand and walk entirely on two feet. Bipedalism is marked by several adaptive skeletal changes along with certain costs. The most spectacular alterations to support body weight and maintain balance are in spine, the pelvis ...

Potential adaptations for bipedalism in the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae of Homo sapiens: A 3D comparative analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Evolution, 2019
A number of putative adaptations for bipedalism have been identified in the hominin spine. However, it is possible that some have been overlooked because only a few studies have used 3D and these studies have focused on cervical vertebrae.

Origin of bipedalism

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1980
AbstractHuman and chimpanzee locomotor behaviors are described and compared using field patterns derived from measurements of the motions at the joints. Field patterns of human and ape bipedalism are so different that it is doubted whether the nonhuman type could ever have been a precursor of the human type. Chimpanzee quadrupedal vertical climbing and

Energetic and endurance constraints on great ape quadrupedalism and the benefits of hominin bipedalism

Evolutionary Anthropology (print), 2021
Bipedal walking was one of the first key behavioral traits that defined the evolution of early hominins. While it is not possible to identify specific selection pressures underlying bipedal evolution, we can better understand how the adoption of ...

Arboreality, terrestriality and bipedalism [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010
The full publication of Ardipithecus ramidus has particular importance for the origins of hominin bipedality, and strengthens the growing case for an arboreal origin. Palaeontological techniques however inevitably concentrate on details of fragmentary postcranial bones and can benefit from a ...
