When John Robinson ran out of government funding and left Swartkrans for a month, he returned to find miners blasting out dripstone to sell to a toothpaste manufacturer. Over the next two years, his team retrieved #hominin fossils from the miners. #paleoanthropology #FossilFriday
By the late 1950s, scientists had recovered #hominin fossils that showed that Australopithecus and Paranthropus were bipeds in a humanlike pattern. The pelvis evolved a form different from any other living or fossil primates. #paleoanthropology
Ah ha. Not me joining a bandwagon.
Aha not me totally not hoping a lot of people do this for me so I can better myself and my character.
Ahaha totally not me secretly homing brutal honesty
Crazy right?
Ahaha amazing piece done by @CobaltMist
@Xbox Probably one of the four images, but there was also Mass Effect, Assassin’s Creed, and The Orange Box... oh, and Geometry Wars Waves, Alien Hominid, and TMNT on XBLA!
The Stw 573 fossil #hominin skeleton is in the news today, for an interesting high-resolution examination of the bone tissue of its jaw. The skull first came to light in 1998. #paleoanthropology
Computer modeling of fossil ear structures indicates that Neanderthals were able to hear & produce complex speech, much like modern humans (and unlike earlier hominids). https://t.co/7tMBusDlyE

The Steinheim skull has been a puzzle in #paleoanthropology. Today, we know that genetic exchanges with Africa influenced early Neandertals, and #hominin fossils from Apidima, Greece close in age to Steinheim may reflect this mixing. Why not this one too? #FossilFriday
We still don't know why the Ngandong fossil bed has so many—12— #hominin partial skulls, with no teeth or other bones except two tibiae. Early suggestions like cannibalism don't fully fit the data, but something curious happened to these H. erectus individuals. #paleoanthropology
The late Middle Pleistocene skull from Kabwe, Zambia, was uncovered a century ago. Today its place in the #hominin family tree is still an open question. Its population retained ancient diversity, yet may have been connected to modern people. #paleoanthropology #FossilFriday
Now THIS is MY Kind of Valentine!
The sanguine ink definitely sets it apart from the René Descartes version that preceded it! Renatus Des Cartes de homine. Lugduni Batavorum: Moyardum & Leffen, 1662. It too has needles indicating parts. @GettyResearch https://t.co/0dLAX1cRSN https://t.co/JAqLLz9TY1
The first skull to emerge from Dmanisi was D2280, also the largest at the site. Although this site no longer presents the earliest evidence of H. erectus, it remains the earliest #hominin fossil assemblage in Eurasia. #paleoanthropology
