Dietary proclivities of Paranthropus robustus from Swartkrans, South Africa

open access: yesAnthropological Review, 2015
Pleistocene Paranthropus robustus fossils from Swartkrans have yielded stable isotope values suggesting some foraging on C4 plants possibly including underground storage organs. Dental microwear texture analysis on P.

Dental microwear and Diet in the Middle Ages

open access: yes, 2015
Notre recherche à propos de la vie au Moyen-âge s’est faite à l’aide du motif de micro-usure dentaire relevé sur un sujet mis au jour lors du dégagement de la base de la tour gallo-romaine de la chapelle royale Saint-Frambourg à Senlis. La comparaison de ce motif avec celui de diverses populations permet de discuter l’influence du caractère abrasif de ...

Reconstructing the feeding behavior of the dwarf Sicilian hippopotamus Hippopotamus pentlandi and the implications for Hippopotamidae paleodiets

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Hippopotamus pentlandi, the endemic dwarf hippopotamus of Sicily, represents one of the most iconic insular large mammals of the Mediterranean Basin. Despite the abundance of fossil remains, its feeding ecology and the environmental conditions of Sicily ...
