Hominin body size didn’t just steadily climb. New PNAS analysis finds a slow background trend across all hominins, then a marked jump in later Homo. Some lineages stayed small. #paleoanthropology #humanevolution #homininevolution
The Body Size Jump That Wasn’t Gradual
A new analysis of 386 hominin fossils finds the biggest shift in body mass came late, fast, and not across the board.

10,000 generations of hominins used the same stone tools to weather a changing world
At a site in Kenya, archaeologists recently unearthed layer upon layer of stone stools from deposits that span 300,000 years, and include a period of intense environmental upheaval. The oldest tools at...

How cosmic events may have influenced hominin evolution
Some cosmic events could have profoundly altered the lives of our ancient human relatives. Did Neanderthals go extinct, at least in part, due to changes in Earth’s magnetic field? Did Australopithecus...
