5. Early hominins

2006
During the period from 8–5 million years ago, the Earth experienced the beginning of a long-term drying and cooling trend. Due to the increasing dryness, forests were replaced with open woodland, and areas of grassland began to appear. Hominin evolution began in Africa at the time of these climatic changes.

Evolution of hominin cranial ontogeny

2012
Hominin evolution is characterized by two main trends, transition to bipedality and increase in brain size. Fossil evidence shows that both trends had a major impact on the structure and function of the hominin skull. This chapter asks how evolutionary modification of the cranial ontogenetic program led to morphological reorganization of the hominin ...

Paleoneurology of hominins

Paleoneurology examines brain evolution through fossil endocasts, offering direct evidence of brain size, shape, and surface organization in extinct species. Digital approaches based on computed tomographic scans now enable detailed, non-invasive analyses, improving sulcal pattern detection and comparative studies with extant primates. Fossil endocasts
