Phonetic Ability and Related Anatomy of the Newborn and Adult Human, Neanderthal Man, and the Chimpanzee
The sounds of human speech make human language a rapid medium of communication through a process o f speech “encoding. I t The presence of sounds like the vowels [a] , [ i ] , and [u] makes this process possible. The supralaryngeal vocal tracts o f newborn Homo sapiens and chimpanzee are similar and resemble the reconstructed vocal tract o f the fossil La Chapellmux-Saints Neanderthal man. Voca...
متن کاملComparative anatomy of the larynx in man and the chimpanzee: implications for language in Neanderthal.
Using the larynges of the newborn human and chimpanzee as models, Lieberman and Crelin ('71) and Lieberman, Crelin and Klatt ('72) have reconstructed the larynx of the "classic" Neanderthal La Chapelle aux Saints. The authors used their reconstructed vocal tract to generate linguistic functions which led them to conclude that Neanderthal lacked the ability to produce fully articulate human spee...
متن کاملChimpanzee Autarky
BACKGROUND Economists believe that barter is the ultimate cause of social wealth--and even much of our human culture--yet little is known about the evolution and development of such behavior. It is useful to examine the circumstances under which other species will or will not barter to more fully understand the phenomenon. Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) are an interesting test case as they are a...
متن کاملSequencing the Chimpanzee Genome
Sequence of the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) genome should be a high priority. The chimpanzee genome sequence will have a major impact on our understanding of human disease, human evolution, and human population genetics. We propose that the first phase of a project to obtain chimpanzee sequence consist of 3-4X whole-genome shotgun coverage, with the sequence obtained from multiple individuals ...
متن کاملChimpanzee accumulative stone throwing
The study of the archaeological remains of fossil hominins must rely on reconstructions to elucidate the behaviour that may have resulted in particular stone tools and their accumulation. Comparatively, stone tool use among living primates has illuminated behaviours that are also amenable to archaeological examination, permitting direct observations of the behaviour leading to artefacts and the...
