Accidentally produced stone fragments made by #macaques resemble some of the earliest #hominin stone artifacts. New study by @MPI_EVA_Leipzig researchers @tomosproffitt, @RocksGeller, @LydieL23 & an intl. research team. More: https://bit.ly/422Ui4x & https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.ade8159

Hominid and hominin – what’s the difference?
"Current use of the term ‘hominid’ can be confusing because the definition of this word has changed over time."

I will watch and/or read almost anything about pre-sapiens hominin evolution. My new hobby: learning all i can about Homo Naledi. #evolution #humanEvolution #hominin

As I end my sabbatical in #Aarhus, I finally visited the amazing #Moesgaard museum. The #hominin section was small but the life sized reconstructions on the stairs are truly amazing. #Archaeology

Frontal sinuses and human #evolution
*********************
New study undermines hypotheses stating that #hominin frontal sinuses were directly affected by biomechanical constraints resulting from either chewing or adaptation to climate.
The oldest cooked food? Evidence for the cooking of fish 780,000 years ago at Gesher Benot Ya’aqov, Israel.
#anthropology #archaeology #Hominin
New study by Frost and his colleagues report that the oldest #hominin fossils in #SouthAfrica are no more than 2.8 million years old. That number contradicts other recent studies that use different methods to propose dates as old as 4 million years ago.

Love this new evidence from GBY, Israel on early #hominin fish cooking ~780 k years ago! This site had previously had some of the earliest evidence of fire anywhere and now we have a better idea of why. #Archaeology #Palaeolithic https://www.newscientist.com/article/2346856-early-humans-may-have-cooked-fish-in-ovens-780000-years-ago/

Read the new Monson, Weitz, Brasil, and Hlusko paper in PNAS this morning.
Demonstrates that prenatal growth rates correlate with endocranial volumes and dental dimensions in extant cercopithecoids, meaning that dental development can be used to estimate hominin prenatal growth rates and neural development. Awesome!

Did a Chaotic Climate Drive Human Evolution?
We owe much of our understanding of the human family tree to decades of fossil finds in East Africa. But whereas researchers know quite a lot about #hominin bones, the environments our ancestors and evolutionary cousins inhabited are a different story—despite East Africa’s anthropological significance, climate records for the region have remained stubbornly sparse.
