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 ...

The Evolution of Brain and Body Size in Genus Homo

open access: yesHumans
Humans, and most other late Homo species, are characterized by large brains and bodies. However, the discovery of two small-brained Homo species—H. floresiensis and Homo naledi—has cast doubts on large brain size as a defining feature of our genus.

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 ...

Verdien Homo naledi ‘n plek in ons familie-album? ‘n Teologiese besinning oor die evoluering van spiritualiteit met spesifieke verwysing na die begraafplaasteorie van Lee Berger en die ‘Rising-Star’-ekspedisie

open access: yesHTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2017
The discovery of a new homonin species called Homo naledi evoked unprecedented interest, even outside the scientific disciplines who are researching extinct homonin species. The reason for this is that Prof.

Crafting Spaces: Deleuzian Perspectives on Women's Identity Work in Male‐Dominated Jobs

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 715-730, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes Deleuzian concepts of becoming minor, lines of flight, and deterritorialization and reterritorialization as a way of understanding identity work based on the experiences of women in male‐dominated jobs. We suggest that Deleuze's frame emphasizes fluidity and rejects category‐limited choices, and it opens up the possibility ...

New partial skeleton of Homo habilis from the upper Burgi Member, Koobi Fora Formation, Ileret, Kenya

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 3, Page 485-545, March 2026.
Abstract KNM‐ER 64061 is a partial skeleton from the upper Burgi Member of the Koobi Fora Formation (2.02–2.06 Ma) associated taphonomically and geochemically with a nearly complete mandibular dentition (KNM‐ER 64060) attributed to Homo habilis.

Whole‐bone shape of hominoid manual proximal phalanges

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 2, Page 245-270, February 2026.
Abstract Functional morphologists have long noted that skeletal adaptations in primate phalanges reflect locomotor behavior. While most studies have successfully used two‐dimensional measurements to quantify general features of phalanx shape, a whole‐bone three‐dimensional analysis may better capture more subtle aspects of phalanx morphology that have ...

Has evolution ‘prepared’ us to deal with death? Paleoanthropological aspects of the enigma of Homo naledi’s disposal of their dead

open access: yesHTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2017
The Homo naledi discovery introduced questions that had not been previously posed regarding fossil finds. This is because, apart from their fascinating physiology, they seemingly deliberately disposed of their dead in a ritualised way.

Platform Work in a High‐Crime City: Navigating Violence and Gendered Safety Strategies Among Uber Drivers in Johannesburg

open access: yesIndustrial Relations Journal, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 102-110, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This article explores how male and female Uber drivers in Johannesburg navigate safety and violence within a high‐crime urban context, highlighting the gendered dimensions of digital platform work. Drawing on qualitative interviews with 30 Uber drivers (15 male and 15 female), the study reveals that while all drivers face threats such as ...
