The craniomandibular morphology of Homo naledi shows variable resemblances with
species across Homo, which confounds an easy assessment of its phylogenetic position. In …

Abstract The development of East African savannas is crucial for the origin and evolution of
early hominins. These ecosystems, however, vary widely in their fraction of woody cover and …
