Crecimiento y desarrollo: una perspectiva evolutiva [PDF]
El estudio del patrón de crecimiento y desarrollo en las distintas especies fósiles del linaje humano permite interpretar de forma correcta el modelo de historia biológica de los individuos adultos e inmaduros y, además, ayuda a los investigadores a ...

Shallow-Water Habitats as Sources of Fallback Foods for Hominins [PDF]
Underground storage organs (USOs) have been proposed as critical fallback foods for early hominins in savanna, but there has been little discussion as to which habitats would have been important sources of USOs.

Superior cervical vertebrae of a Miocene hominoid and a Plio-Pleistocene hominid from southern Africa [PDF]
The Miocene hominoid and Plio-Pleistocene hominid vertebral record is poor. In 1994, a complete atlas of a hominoid was found in breccia at Berg Aukas in Namibia. Its age was estimated to be middle Miocene (13 myr) on the basis of microfauna.

Palaeomagnetic analysis indicates that Haasgat, a fossil-bearing palaeocave in the Gauteng Province of South Africa, is dominated by reversed magnetic polarity in its oldest, deepest layers and normal polarity in the younger layers.

Tertiary Dentine Frequencies in Extant Great Apes and Fossil Hominins
Tertiary dentine forms when an odontoblast is directly affected by stimuli, commonly through occlusal wear and caries. In this study the presence of tertiary dentine was recorded in three South African fossil hominin species ('Australopithecus africanus,

Enamel thickness in South African australopithecines: noninvasive evaluation by computed tomography [PDF]
Until recently, it has not been possible to systematically study enamel thickness in fossil hominids except by physically sectioning the teeth. Because sectioning studies destroy original specimens, sample sizes will always be low.

Oldest evidence of tool making hominins in a grassland-dominated ecosystem. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Major biological and cultural innovations in late Pliocene hominin evolution are frequently linked to the spread or fluctuating presence of C(4) grass in African ecosystems.

Isotopic evidence for contrast diets of early hominins Homo habilis and Australopithecus boisei of Tanzania [PDF]
Isotopic dietary studies of early hominins have hitherto been confined to specimens from South Africa. We are now able to report isotopic analyses of two species of early hominins from Tanzania : Homo habilis and Australopithecus boisei. The results show
