Pelvic Morphology in Homo erectus and Early Homo [PDF]

The Anatomical Record, 2017
ABSTRACTThe evolution of the hominin pelvis is generally seen as involving two broad stages: the establishment of bipedal pelvic morphology by the mid‐Pliocene (or earlier), followed by architectural changes necessary to enlarge the birth canal in response to increased encephalization in Pleistocene members of the genus Homo.

Homo heterogenus: Variability in early Pleistocene Homo environments

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, 2023
To understand the ecological dominance of Homo sapiens, we need to investigate the origins of the plasticity that has enabled our colonization of the planet.

Making meaning from fragmentary fossils: Early Homo in the Early to early Middle Pleistocene.

Journal of Human Evolution, 2023
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Journal of Human Evolution, we re-evaluate the fossil record for early Homo (principally Homo erectus, Homo habilis, and Homo rudolfensis) from early diversification and dispersal in the Early Pleistocene to ...

New reconstruction of DAN5 cranium (Gona, Ethiopia) supports complex emergence of Homo erectus [PDF]

Nature Communications
The African Early Pleistocene is a time of evolutionary change and techno-behavioral innovation in human prehistory that sees the advent of our own genus, Homo, from earlier australopithecine ancestors by 2.8-2.3 million years ago.

Infant craniofacial diversity in Early Pleistocene Homo

Nature Communications
The adult craniofacial diversity of early Pleistocene Homo species is relatively well-documented, but its developmental foundations is hindered by the scarcity of infant specimens with preserved skeletal features.

Early evolution of small body size in Homo floresiensis

Nature Communications
Recent discoveries of Homo floresiensis and H. luzonensis raise questions regarding how extreme body size reduction occurred in some extinct Homo species in insular environments.

Testing the taxonomy of Dmanisi hominin fossils through dental crown area. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
The Dmanisi paleoanthropological assemblage from Georgia is among the most debated collections of hominin fossils due to its early age and extreme morphological diversity relative to other Homo assemblages.

Ledi-Geraru strikes again: Morphological affinities of the LD 350-1 mandible with early Homo [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023
The origins of the genus Homo have been a focus of much debate in the paleoanthropological literature due to its importance in understanding the evolutionary trajectories that led to the appearance of archaic humans and our species.
