This review examines putative, yet likely critical evolutionary pressures contributing to human skin pigmentation and subsequently, depigmentation phenotypes. To achieve this, it provides a synthesis of ideas that frame contemporary thinkin...
Genomic analysis reveals geography rather than culture as the predominant factor shaping genetic variation in northern Kenyan human populations [0.03%]
基因组分析显示，在肯尼亚北部的人群中地理因素而非文化是形成遗传多样的主要因素

Objectives: The aim of this study was to characterize the genetic relationships within and among four neighboring ethnolinguistic groups in northern Kenya in light of cultural relationships to understand the extent to whi...
Automated age-at-death estimation by cementochronology: Essential application or additional complication? [0.03%]
基于牙本质年轮法的自动年龄鉴定技术：实际应用需求还是额外复杂化因素？

Objectives: Recent studies have associated subarticular trabecular bone distribution in the extant hominid first metacarpal (Mc1) with observed thumb use, to infer fossil hominin thumb use. Here, we analyze the entire Mc1...
Testing different 3D techniques using geometric morphometrics: Implications for cranial fluctuating asymmetry in humans [0.03%]
应用几何形态计量学测试不同的三维技术及其对人体颅骨波动不对称性的影响

Trine Bottos Olsen
This study aimed to test the performance of 3D digitizer, CT scanner, and surface scanner in detecting cranial fluctuating asymmetry. Sets of 32 landmarks (6 in the midline and 13 bilateral) were acquired from 14 archeological crania using ...
3D geometric morphometric analysis of the distal radius insertion sites of the palmar radiocarpal ligaments indicates a relationship between wrist anatomy and unique locomotor behavior in hylobatids [0.03%]
三维几何形态计量学分析短腕猿类掌侧腕掌韧带附着点的桡骨远端表明手腕解剖结构与独特的运动行为有关
Aroa Casado,Elisabeth Cuesta-Torralvo,Juan Francisco Pastor et al.
Aroa Casado et al.
Objectives: The objective of this study is to explore the anatomical differences in the insertion sites of the palmar radiocarpal ligaments between hylobatids and other hominoids that may be related to their different loc...

Ancient Egyptian remains have been of interest for anthropological research for decades. Despite many investigations, the ritual vessels for the internal organs removed during body preparation-liver, lungs, stomach, and intestines, of Egypt...
Examination of runs of homozygosity in relation to height in an endogamous Namibian population [0.03%]
尼日利亚一个endogamy人群中的核苷酸变异与身高的关系分析研究
Natalie Swinford,Brenna Gallagher,Jacob Sheehama et al.
Natalie Swinford et al.
Objectives: Height is a complex, highly heritable polygenic trait subject to both genetic composition and environmental influences. Recent studies suggest that a large proportion of height heritability is determined by th...
Can urbanization accentuate hand use in the foraging activities of primates? [0.03%]
城市化能否加剧灵长类动物在觅食活动中的用手差异？
Tejeshwar Dhananjaya,Sayantan Das,Monica Harpalani et al.
Tejeshwar Dhananjaya et al.
Objectives: How a species uses its anatomical manipulators is determined by its anatomy, physiology, and ecology. While ecology explains interspecific variation in gripping, grasping, and manipulating objects, its role in...
