DOI: 10.1016/j.revpalbo.2019.03.004
Abstract: Abstract Hominins evolved in Africa during a period of overall regional cooling, drying, and increasingly variable climate. Despite prevailing regional aridity since the mid-Miocene, data show that early hominins Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Orrorin tugenensis, and Ardipithecus… read more here.

Abstract: Paleontologists and paleoanthropologists have long debated relationships between cranial morphology and diet in a broad diversity of organisms. While the presence of larger temporalis muscle attachment area (via the presence of sagittal crests) in carnivorans… read more here.
