Little Foot, 3.67 million years old, loaded its arms like a climbing gorilla and its legs like a walking human. Early Homo had left the trees by 1.8 million years ago. #HumanEvolution #Australopithecus #Paleoanthropology www.anthropology.net/p/little-foo...

#China: Denisovan Site Discovery

Two Ice Age skeletons from Sulawesi show teeth ground into deep grooves by decades of sucking raw betel nuts, no lime needed. It pushes the record of human drug use back to 25,000 years ago, long before farming. #Archaeology #HumanEvolution #Paleoanthropology www.anthropology.net/p/betel-nut-...

Five Denisovan fossils from a Yunnan cave, including the only known Denisovan forearm bone, were confirmed after DNA extraction failed. Ancient proteins did the identifying instead. #Denisovans #Paleoanthropology #AncientDNA www.anthropology.net/p/five-denis...

A chimpanzee in this study never once landed heel-first in 43 strides. New research shows why humans always do, and the physical cost hidden in that single evolutionary difference. #HumanEvolution #Paleoanthropology #Bipedalism www.anthropology.net/p/the-evolut...

The authors report a limited role of gradual directional selection and underscore the importance of stabilizing selection and constraints in our lineage’s evolution.
