Document Summary
Antc17 lecture 1: introduction and review of human skeletal anatomy. Bipedalism- effects every part of the skeleton. Reliance on material culture- high reliance on material culture, did not exist until 2. 5. Highly developed systems of language and symbolism. Eg. molecular evidence suggested 5 mya that human and chimp lineage split, but fossil suggested earlier.

What types of teeth there are, the enamel thickness. P. (cid:271)oisei"s sagittal (cid:396)ests- muscle attachment for chewing and jaw muscles. Brain size has implications on the metabolic requirement. Can predict body size from the skull, based on stable cranial to body size ratio in earlier. For modern humans, our head is 6 times larger than the body. Look at the pelvis of the female members of a species- smaller outlet in male pelvis, larger pelvis in female pelvis.
