Morphology, paleoanthropology, and Neanderthals.
Morphology carries the primary signal of events in the evolutionary history of any group of organisms but has been relatively neglected by paleoanthropologists, those who study the history of the human species. Partly this is the result of historical influences, but it is also due to a rather fundamentalist adherence among paleoanthropologists to the tenets of the Neodarwinian Evolutionary Synt...

متن کاملPaleoanthropology and evolutionary theory.
Paleoanthropologists of the first half of the twentieth century were little concerned either with evolutionary theory or with the technicalities and broader implications of zoological nomenclature. In consequence, the paleoanthropological literature of the period consisted largely of a series of descriptions accompanied by authoritative pronouncements, together with a huge excess of hominid gen...
متن کاملFraud and Forgery in Paleoanthropology
A review of the history of paleoanthropology leads to the conclusion that the discipline is far less objective than that for physics, chemistry, or even biology. The field is rife with controversy and fraud, including outright faking. Classic examples include Piltdown man and Hesperopithecus but many other less well-known examples exist that are reviewed in this paper. Several well-documented e...
متن کاملA Computational Approach to Paleoanthropology
One of the major difficulties that commonly arises during the analysis of fossils is the lack of extensive samples and the incompleteness of individual specimens. Even by paleontological standards, hominid fossils are extremely rare objects, and the principal difficulties encountered during the analysis of fossil morphology can be expected to multiply in this special case. Given the need to gai...
