Variation of the mandibular angle in Middle Pleistocene Homo, Homo neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens

The goniac region is one of the mandibular features that displays a particular configuration in Homo neanderthalensis, including traits which are apomorphies also observed in several Middle Pleistocene (MP) fossils, such as a truncated shape and an inverted orientation. At the same time, H. sapiens...

Descrição
Resumo:The goniac region is one of the mandibular features that displays a particular configuration in Homo neanderthalensis, including traits which are apomorphies also observed in several Middle Pleistocene (MP) fossils, such as a truncated shape and an inverted orientation. At the same time, H. sapiens shows another direction of intra-specific variability, from the typical regular and straight gonion to the expanded and everted configuration in the Upper Paleolithic Iberomaurusians.
