PaleoAnthropology, 2021 Homo naledi is known from the Rising Star cave system, South Africa, where its remains have previously been reported from two localities: the Dinaledi Chamber (U.W. 101) and Lesedi Chamber (U.W. 102). Continued exploration of the cave system has expanded

Relative tooth size, Bayesian inference, and Homo naledi
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, Volume 176, Issue 2, Page 262-282, October 2021., 2021 Abstract Objectives Size‐corrected tooth crown measurements were used to estimate phenetic affinities among Homo naledi (~335–236 ka) and 11 other Plio‐Pleistocene and recent species. To assess further their efficacy, and identify dental evolutionary trends, the data were then quantitatively coded for phylogenetic analyses.

‘Welc(h)omo Naledi’! What does our newest relative have to say to us?
HTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2016 The new hominin fossil called Homo naledi that was discovered 2 years ago in the Dinaledi Chamber (South Africa) was welcomed into the species of human relatives on 10 September 2015. Welcomed?

Morphological affinities of Homo naledi with other Plio-Pleistocene hominins: a phenetic approach
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasRecent fossil material found in Dinaledi Chamber, South Africa, was initially described as a new species of genus Homo, namely Homo naledi. The original study of this new material has pointed to a close proximity with Homo erectus.

Linear enamel hypoplasia in Homo naledi reappraised in light of new Retzius periodicities
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 184, Issue 3, July 2024.Abstract Objectives Among low‐latitude apes, developmental defects of enamel often recur twice yearly, linkable to environmental cycles. Surprisingly, teeth of Homo naledi from Rising Star in South Africa (241–335 kya), a higher latitude site with today a single rainy season, also exhibit bimodally distributed hypoplastic enamel defects, but with ...

The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 7, Page 2665-2707, July 2024.Abstract This study provides a complete, updated and illustrated inventory, as well as a comprehensive study, of the metatarsals and foot phalanges (forefoot) recovered from the Middle Pleistocene site of Sima de los Huesos (SH, Atapuerca, Spain) in comparison to other Homo comparative samples, both extant and fossils.

Tarsals from the Sima de los Huesos Middle Pleistocene site (Atapuerca, Burgos, Spain)
The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 7, Page 2635-2664, July 2024.Abstract Here, we provide a complete, updated, and illustrated inventory, as well as a comprehensive study, of the tarsals (rearfoot) recovered from the Middle Pleistocene site of Sima de los Huesos (SH, Atapuerca, Spain) in comparison to other Homo comparative samples, both extant and fossil.

Human‐like enamel growth in Homo naledi
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 184, Issue 1, May 2024.Abstract Objectives A modern pattern (rate and duration) of dental development occurs relatively recently during human evolution. Given the temporal overlap of Homo naledi with the first appearance of fossil Homo sapiens in Africa, this small‐bodied and small‐brained hominin presents an opportunity to elucidate the evolution of enamel growth in the ...
