A Brief Update on Developments in Early Hominin Biogeochemistry
2013Although two decades have passed since the first biogeochemical studies of early hominin diet were published, the field has only picked up steam in the last few years. There have been major increases in available hominin carbon isotope data which allow exploration of temporal, taxonomic, and biogeographic differences in hominin diet, as well as further

Early hominin diversity and the emergence of the genus Homo.
Journal of anthropological sciences = Rivista di antropologia : JASS, 2016Bipedalism is a defining trait of hominins, as all members of the clade are argued to possess at least some characters indicative of this unusual form of locomotion. Traditionally the evolution of bipedalism has been treated in a somewhat linear way. This has been challenged in the last decade or so, and in this paper I consider this view in light of ...

Prelinguistic evolution in early hominins: Whence motherese?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004In order to formulate hypotheses about the evolutionary underpinnings that preceded the first glimmerings of language, mother-infant gestural and vocal interactions are compared in chimpanzees and humans and used to model those of early hominins. These data, along with paleoanthropological evidence, suggest that prelinguistic vocal substrates for ...

Cenozoic Atmospheres and Early Hominins
2013The Cenozoic era includes four components (A) post K-T impact warming culminating with the Paleocene-Eocene hyperthermal at ~55 Ma; (B) long term cooling ending with a sharp temperature plunge toward formation of the Antarctic ice sheet from 32 Ma; (C) a post-32 Ma era dominated by the Antarctic ice sheet, including limited thermal rises in the end ...
