Indeed, there are some species (e.g., Homo rudolfensis) for which the postcranial skeleton is currently unknown. This is not to say that postcranial bones have not featured in the diagnoses and definitions of extinct hominin taxa, as exemplified by Homo habilis (Leakey et al., 1964), ...
were assessed in relation to same-scale comparisons between the holotypes of 'robust' australopithecine (Plio-Pleistocene hominin) taxa which have traditionally been distinguished at a species level, notably Paranthropus robustus from South Africa, and Paranthropus (Australopithecus/ Zinjanthropus) bo...
The Chew Bahir Drilling Project (CBDP) aims to test possible linkages between climate and hominin evolution in Africa through the analysis of sediment cores that have recorded environmental changes in the Chew Bahir basin (CHB). In this statistical project we used recurrence plots (RPs) together ...
