Document Summary
This includes learned behaviors that can be communicated to others especially from one generation to the next. Aspects of this capacity have been identi ed in our closest ape relatives: multidisciplinary: pertaining to research involving mutual contributions and cooperations of experts from various scienti c elds (i. e. , disciplines), sites: locations of discoveries. The earliest artifacts tend to be made of stone or occasionally bone: oldowan industry: the earliest recognized stone tool culture, including very simple tools, mostly small. For example, in hominin evolution, the dental system, locomotor system, and neurological system (especially the brain) all evolved at markedly different rates: bipedal locomotion: walking on two feet. Walking on two legs is the single most distinctive feature of the hominins: habitual bipedalism: bipedal locomotion as the form of locomotion shown by hominins most of the time. Monday, october 10, 2016: obligate bipedalism: bipedalism as the only form of hominin terrestrial locomotion.
