Paleoneurology: A Sight for Four Eyes [PDF]
The 'third eye' of the pineal complex is a curious component of the vertebrate brain associated with light sensation and melatonin production. A fossil lizard with a 'fourth eye' now calls for a reinterpretation of pineal evolution.

The skull from Florisbad: a paleoneurological report.
Journal of anthropological sciences = Rivista di antropologia : JASS, 2020The Florisbad fossil cranium was found in South Africa in 1932. Different authors proposed a taxonomic affinity with early Homo sapiens, Neandertals or late Homo heidelbergensis. Here, we review its neurocranial morphology, to supply an updated perspective on its paleoneurological features.

PALEONEUROLOGICAL EVIDENCE FOR LANGUAGE ORIGINS
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1976If there is any hallmark that might be said to be unique to the human animal, it is surely the ability to speculate about the origin of language. I have too much respect and regard for the intellective capacities of chimpanzees to imagine them prone to such exercises in egoistic futility.

Big Birds and Their Brains: Paleoneurology of the New Zealand Moa
Brain, Behavior and Evolution, 2007The moa (Dinornithiformes: Aves) are an extinct group of ratites from the North and South Islands of New Zealand. The ancestors of both the moa and the kiwi were isolated from other Gondwanan fauna as much as 80 million years ago and evolved in the absence of large mammalian predators.

The gospel of the fossil brain: Tilly Edinger and the science of paleoneurology
Brain Research Bulletin, 1999Tilly Edinger (1897-1967) was a vertebrate paleontologist interested in the evolution of the central nervous system. By combining methods and insights gained from comparative neuroanatomy and paleontology, she almost single-handedly founded modern paleoneurology in the 1920s while working at the Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt am Main.

Issues in neo- and paleoneurology of language
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1995AbstractWilkins and Wakefield's hypothesis that language is fundamentally a cognitive rather than cominunicational adaptation is reasonable, but there are flaws in their anatomical and fossil evidence. Their analysis of reorganization also needs clarification. Finally, the origin of language ability must have occurred with australopithecine rather than
