Impacted Bones: Can Extant Primates Help Identify Tool Use in Early Hominins? [PDF]

open access: yesEvol Anthropol
ABSTRACT Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co‐existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. In addition to analyzing fossils and lithic toolkits, novel strides in understanding this might be made by
