It contains the primitive characteristics like the heavy brow ridge, wide base and palate, and elongated low braincase. It also lacks the steeply sloping back of the skull of Homo erectus and the ...

To recreate the faces of our early ancestors, some of whom have been extinct for millions of years, sculptor John Gurche dissected the heads of modern humans and apes, mapping patterns of soft tissue ...

That could place the ancestors of Homo sapiens—modern humans—outside Africa, an idea which flips everything palaeontologists ...

Evidence is mounting that the evolution of our species is more convoluted than we imagined — more like a braided stream than a branching tree. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...
