Apidima 1 may be the earliest European #hominin fossil aligned with African ancestors of modern people, more than 210,000 years old. But some specialists suggest it was an ancestor of Neandertals. Of course, it may be both. #paleoanthropology
The dreadful
A portrait inspired by the Mona Lisa. I think i got the smile pretty spot on.

The Dmanisi site has some of the most informative postcranial remains of Homo erectus, telling us about the body size and locomotion of this #hominin species. D4167 comes from an individual of around 155 cm in stature. #paleoanthropology
Finally finished the art for Homing Signal! https://t.co/hAMJ8cNIZE Which is a 64k #Garashir fic where Garak and Julian are stranded on an alien planet for months. Someone in the comments described it as “survivalist cottagecore”... and they’re not wrong.
The late André Keyser was faced with the problem of extricating the DNH 7 #hominin skull from an ant colony and tangle of plant roots. The pieces today comprise the most complete known skull of Paranthropus robustus #paleoanthropology
The travertine site at Bilzingsleben, Germany, has fossils from straight-tusked elephants, woolly rhinos, and macaques dating to an interglacial probably 400,000 years ago. The #hominin population left tools and remains of at least two individuals. #paleoanthropology
Iúdica me Deus et discérne causam meam de gente non sancta ab homine iníquo et dolóso éripe me quia tu es Deus meus et fortitúdo mea
Do me justice O God and fight my fight against a faithless people; from the deceitful and impious man rescue me
For You are my God and my strength
The MH2 #hominin mandible is still being built, fragment by fragment, as pieces are recovered from Malapa and prepared in the lab. The skull of this adult Australopithecus sediba individual may be found within the breccia as well. #paleoanthropology
KNM-ER 3733 helped establish that #hominin evolution was a branching tree and not a straight line. Alan Walker famously cracked the skull into three pieces with a chisel to remove the hard rock from inside, enabling reconstruction of the face. #paleoanthropology #FossilFriday
Please draw beefy alien hominid. beefy alien hominid is my life.
As the smallest mandible in the highly variable Sterkfontein Member 4 #hominin sample, Stw 404 has been a key fossil in understanding whether all these fossils represent Australopithecus africanus, or some of them may represent a second, larger species. #paleoanthropology

The Canadian anatomist Davidson Black died at his desk in 1934 with the skull of Sinanthropus from Locus E beside him. This #hominin skull was unearthed by Wenzhong Pei in 1929 deep within a fissure cave in Longgushan, or "Dragon Bone Hill" #paleoanthropology
Some skulls of Homo erectus have exceptionally thick cranial bones. This #hominin individual from Sangiran, Indonesia, has a thickened bar of bone on the back, known as the nuchal torus, defining the area above the trapezius muscle. #paleoanthropology
