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

Re-visiting the notion of Deep Incarnation in light of 1 Corinthians 15:28 and emergence theory
HTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2016 Niels Hendrik Gregersen’s ‘Deep Incarnation’ is opening up possibilities for engagementbetween science and theology. Recent discoveries, like that of Homo naledi, raise questions abouthow inclusive a Christian doctrine of Incarnation is.

The age of Homo Naledi and associated sediments in the Rising Star Cave, South Africa
, 2022 New ages for flowstone, sediments and fossil bones from the Dinaledi Chamber are presented. We combined optically stimulated luminescence dating of sediments with U-Th and palaeomagnetic analyses of flowstones to establish that all sediments containing ...

Dental caries in South African fossil hominins
South African Journal of Science, 2021 Once considered rare in fossil hominins, caries has recently been reported in several hominin species, requiring a new assessment of this condition during human evolution.

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

PaleoAnthropology, 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 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.

The Evolution of Brain and Body Size in Genus Homo
HumansHumans, 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
Homo, 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 ...

Whole‐bone shape of hominoid manual proximal phalanges
The 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 ...
