Palaeodemographics of individuals in Dinaledi Chamber using dental remains

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2018
Hominin skeletal remains from the Dinaledi Chamber, South Africa, represent a minimum of 15 individuals of the extinct species Homo naledi. We examined the dental material from this sample in order to assess the life-history stages of individuals in the ...

Femoral neck and shaft structure in Homo naledi

open access: yes, 2018
The abundant femoral assemblage of Homo naledi provides a unique opportunity to test hypotheses regarding the taxonomy, locomotion, and loading patterns in this species. Here we describe neck and shaft cross-sectional structure of several H.

Die Mondphasen vom Homo naledi bis zum Homo sapiens. Zur Genealogie homininer Signaturen

open access: yes
Homo naledi was introduced in a paper by Lee Berger et al. in 2015. On the base of a drawing in the Rising Star Cave (South Africa), we try to determine the „mental“ signature of homo naledi.

Homo naledi pelvic remains from the Dinaledi Chamber, South Africa

open access: yes, 2018
In the hominin fossil record, pelvic remains are sparse and are difficult to attribute taxonomically when they are not directly associated with craniodental material.

A History of Research on Human Evolution in South Africa from 1924 to 2016

open access: yesRevue de Primatologie, 2017
South Africa has a rich palaeo-anthropological heritage. The very first Plio-Pleistocene specimen of Australopithecus, from the site of Taung, was described by Raymond Dart in 1925.

Evaluating Hominin taxic Diversity in the African Middle Pleistocene With Evolutionary Quantitative Genetics

open access: yesPaleoAnthropology
The Middle Pleistocene hominin fossil record is taxonomically diverse, with Homo sapiens, Homo neanderthalesis, Homo naledi, and Homo erectus, all existing at various times during this period. These species are generally recognized as valid, but there is

Tooth size apportionment, Bayesian inference, and the phylogeny of Homo naledi [PDF]

open access: yes
Objectives: Size-corrected tooth crown measurements were used to estimate phenetic affinities among Homo naledi (~335–236 ka) and 11 other Plio-Pleistocene and recent species. To assess further their efficacy, and identify dental evolutionary trends, the

Homo naledi, a new species of the genus Homo

open access: yes, 2015
Homo naledi es una especie previamente desconocida de homínido extinto descubierta dentro de la Cámara Dinaledi del sistema de cuevas Rising Star, en el Cradle of Humankind, Sudáfrica. Esta especie se caracteriza por tener una masa corporal y estatura similar a las poblaciones humanas de cuerpo pequeño, pero un volumen endocraneal pequeño similar al de

Endostructural morphology of the Homo naledi mandibular premolars [PDF]

open access: yes
The taxonomic position of the recently discovered species Homo naledi is still uncertain. One of the many distinctive aspects of the dentition of the species is the external morphology of the mandibular third premolar, which has two roots and is fully ...
