The Diets of Early Hominins

Science, 2011
Diet changes are considered key events in human evolution. Most studies of early hominin diets focused on tooth size, shape, and craniomandibular morphology, as well as stone tools and butchered animal bones. However, in recent years, dental microwear and stable isotope analyses have hinted at unexpected diversity and complexity in early ...

Encounters with archaic hominins

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2018
The presence of Neanderthal DNA fragments in the genomes of modern humans from Europe and East Asia indicates multiple episodes of interbreeding between Neanderthals and the ancestors of both populations. © 2018, Springer Nature Limited.

On the moral status of hominins

Monash Bioethics Review, 2019
This article evaluates the moral status of hominins, and obligations we may have towards them. In exploring these ethical considerations, I consider one of the most recent hominin finds: the 'graveyard' of Homo naledi in the Dinaledi caves at the Cradle of Humankind in South Africa. I argue that findings about H.

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2019
New research suggests that groups of ~130 modern humans at minimum undertook planned expeditions to colonise Sahul via a northern route. However, the necessity of more evidence to test this model reflects a need for change in the way we investigate the population history of this region.

An aetiology of hominin behaviour

HOMO, 2012
A rough framework for a first attempt to formulate a preliminary aetiology of hominin behaviour is proposed, based on scientific rather than archaeological evidence and reasoning. Distinctive precursors of modernity in human behaviour were present several million years ago, and since then have become gradually more established.

The Hominin Lifestyle

2016
We have seen that adolescence has become longer and longer during our evolutionary line. We will also talk about how old age has become prolonged. Both are stages in life when opportunities for recreation and leisure increase: we also believe that younger people and older people now enjoy more such opportunities than the young and elderly in the past ...
