Morphological affinities of Homo naledi with other Plio-Pleistocene hominins: a phenetic approach

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Recent 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.

Long-term patterns of body mass and stature evolution within the hominin lineage [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
Body size is a central determinant of a species' biology and adaptive strategy, but the number of reliable estimates of hominin body mass and stature have been insufficient to determine long-term patterns and subtle interactions in these size components ...

Mandibular molar root and pulp cavity morphology in Homo naledi and other Plio-Pleistocene hominins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The craniomandibular morphology of Homo naledi shows variable resemblances with species across Homo, which confounds an easy assessment of its phylogenetic position. In terms of skull shape, H.

Further morphological evidence on South African earliest Homo lower postcanine dentition: Enamel thickness and enamel dentine junction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The appearance of the earliest members of the genus Homo in South Africa represents a key event in human evolution. Although enamel thickness and enamel dentine junction (EDJ) morphology preserve important information about hominin systematics and ...

Structural Analyses of the Midshaft in an Isolated Femur from Koobi Fora, Kenya: Implications for Taxonomic Identity

open access: yesPaleoAnthropology, 2022
Reconstructing hominin evolution is dependent on our capacity to securely and accurately allocate fossil hominin material to an appropriate taxon. While taxonomic assignments are traditionally based on craniodental morphology, structural analyses of ...

Revisiting the age of the Florisbad hominin material

open access: yesHomo, 2023
In 1996, Grün and coworkers provided an ESR age determination for a hominin molar from Florisbad, South Africa, at 259 ± 35 ka. The most anatomically informative hominin specimen from Florisbad is a fragmentary craniofacial specimen, attributed by many ...
