Plio-Pleistocene African Climate

Science, 1995
Marine records of African climate variability document a shift toward more arid conditions after 2.8 million years ago (Ma), evidently resulting from remote forcing by cold North Atlantic sea-surface temperatures associated with the onset of Northern Hemisphere glacial cycles.

Fore- and hindlimb proportions in Plio-Pleistocene hominids

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1978
AbstractAssociated fore‐ and hindlimb parts of five individuals are known from the hominid Plio‐Pleistocene fossil collections in Africa. Four of these have been classified as Australopithecus and show definite evidence that in comparison with humans, forelimbs were relatively large and hindlimbs were relatively small.

Comparative context of Plio-Pleistocene hominin brain evolution

Journal of Human Evolution, 2001
One of the distinguishing features of Homo sapiens is its absolutely and relatively large brain. This feature is also seen in less extreme form in some fossil Homo species. However, are increases in brain size during the Plio-Pleistocene only seen in Homo, and is brain enlargement among Plio-Pleistocene primates confined to hominins?

Palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of the Cradle of Humankind during the Plio-Pleistocene transition, inferred from the analysis of fossil birds from Member 2 of the hominin-bearing site of Kromdraai (Gauteng, South Africa)

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2020
The results of the analysis of the bird assemblage from Member 2 of the Paranthropus robustus type-locality of Kromdraai are presented here, and the data are used to infer the environmental context of the Plio-Pleistocene transition in the Cradle of ...

Male strategies and Plio-Pleistocene archaeology

Journal of Human Evolution, 2002
Archaeological data are frequently cited in support of the idea that big game hunting drove the evolution of early Homo, mainly through its role in offspring provisioning. This argument has been disputed on two grounds: (1) ethnographic observations on modern foragers show that although hunting may contribute a large fraction of the overall diet, it is

New remains of Elephantidae from the Upper Siwalik subgroup (Plio-Pleistocene) of Pakistan

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2019
The Siwalik sequence saw the appearance and spread of the family Elephantidae in the Indian subcontinent during the Plio-Pleistocene epochs. Elephas flourished and underwent species turnover during the Plio-Pleistocene of the Siwalik Group.

Theropithecus and ‘Out of Africa’ dispersal in the Plio-Pleistocene

Journal of Human Evolution, 2008
Theropithecus oswaldi was one of the most widely distributed Plio-Pleistocene primates, found in southern, East, and North Africa, as well as in Spain, India, and possibly Italy. Such a large geographic range for a single primate species is highly unusual. Here, the nature and timing of its dispersal is examined using the Stepping Out cellular automata
