Sex-specific effects of environmental temperature during gestation on fluctuating asymmetry in deciduous teeth Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. (IF 2.8) Pub Date : 2024-04-16 Emily Moes, Christopher W. Kuzawa, Heather J. H. Edgar
External environmental heat exposure during gestation impacts the physiology of human development in utero, but evidence for these impacts has not yet been explored in dentition. We examined deciduous teeth for fluctuating asymmetry (FA), a measure of developmental instability, together with gestational environmental temperature data drawn from historical weather statistics.

Helicobacter pylori exposure among the Awajún of the Peruvian Amazon: Prevalence and environmental, social, and biological associations Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. (IF 2.8) Pub Date : 2024-04-13 Paula S. Tallman, Aaron A. Miller, Sophea R. Brandley, Cassie C. Lee, Tara J. Cepon-Robins, Theresa E. Gildner, Shalean M. Collins
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)—a gastric bacteria affecting almost 50% of the global population and leading to ulcers and cancer in severe cases—is a growing health concern among Indigenous populations who report a high burden of reported poor general health and gastrointestinal distress. We test hypothesized associations between H. pylori exposure patterns and environmental, social, and biological

The standard approach constructs predictive equations from postcrania, but studies have questioned the reliability of traditional measures. Here, we examine several skeletal features to assess their accuracy in predicting body mass.

Linear enamel hypoplasia in Homo naledi reappraised in light of new Retzius periodicities Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. (IF 2.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-04 Mark Fretson Skinner, Lucas Kyle Delezene, Matthew M. Skinner, Patrick Mahoney
Among low-latitude apes, developmental defects of enamel often recur twice yearly, linkable to environmental cycles. Surprisingly, teeth of Homo naledi from Rising Star in South Africa (241–335 kya), a higher latitude site with today a single rainy season, also exhibit bimodally distributed hypoplastic enamel defects, but with uncertain timing and etiology. Newly determined Retzius periodicities for

From such great heights: The effects of substrate height and the perception of risk on lemur locomotor mechanics Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. (IF 2.8) Pub Date : 2024-02-27 Nicole M. Schapker, Judith Janisch, Lydia C. Myers, Taylor Phelps, Liza J. Shapiro, Jesse W. Young
An accident during arboreal locomotion can lead to risky falls, but it remains unclear that the extent to which primates, as adept arborealists, change their locomotion in response to the perceived risk of moving on high supports in the tree canopy. By using more stable forms of locomotion on higher substrates, primates might avoid potentially fatal consequences.

Over the past few years, several methods have been proposed to improve the accuracy of age estimation in infants with a focus on dental development as a reliable marker. However, traditional approaches have limitations in efficiently combining information from different teeth and features. In order to address these challenges, this article presents a study on age estimation in infants with Machine

Sex and ancestry patterning of residual correlations in human dental development: Cooperative genetic interaction and phenotypic plasticity Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. (IF 2.8) Pub Date : 2024-02-08 Valerie Sgheiza
Most research in human dental age estimation has focused on point estimates of age, and most research on dental development theories has focused on morphology or eruption.

Burned bone coloration has been used for decades to help in the bioanthropological analysis of burned human bones. However, there is a variety of factors that can interfere with the coloration manifested by bones exposed to heat, resulting in colors that differ from the usual black to white gradient. In this study, we evaluated possible causes of unusual coloration changes and hues in burned bone.

Human-like enamel growth in Homo naledi Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. (IF 2.8) Pub Date : 2024-01-05 Patrick Mahoney, Gina McFarlane, Alberto J. Taurozzi, Palesa P. Madupe, Mackie C. O'Hara, Keneiloe Molopyane, Enrico Cappellini, John Hawks, Matthew M. Skinner, Lee Berger
A modern pattern (rate and duration) of dental development occurs relatively recently during human evolution. Given the temporal overlap of Homo naledi with the first appearance of fossil Homo sapiens in Africa, this small-bodied and small-brained hominin presents an opportunity to elucidate the evolution of enamel growth in the hominin clade.

Fossil footprints (i.e., tracks) were believed to document arch anatomical evolution, although our recent work has shown that track arches record foot kinematics instead. Analyses of track arches can thereby inform the evolution of human locomotion, although quantifying this 3-D aspect of track morphology is difficult. Here, we present a volumetric method for measuring the arches of 3-D models of human
