Human body size evolution was not a linear progression. Instead, a massive body mass explosion occurred 2 to 2.5 million years ago with Homo erectus, while divergent species like H...
If Homo floresiensis wasn't a fire-using hunter, its origins could be different than we thought.
A new study suggests early humans were using fire in South Africa’s Wonderwerk Cave as far back as 1.79 million years ago. Researchers found burned bones deep inside the cave, wher...
New PNAS research on 386 fossils shows human body size jumped later within the genus Homo rather than growing steadily across the whole family tree
Researchers working with the Smithsonian poured over 10,061 artifacts and other elements to determine whether tiny ‘Homo floresiensis’ used fire or hunted big game.
