Human cranial anatomy and the differential preservation of population history and climate signatures.

The anatomical record. Part A, Discoveries in molecular, cellular, and evolutionary biology - 1 Dec 2006

Harvati Katerina, Weaver Timothy D

Abstract excerpt

Cranial morphology is widely used to reconstruct evolutionary relationships, but its reliability in reflecting phylogeny and population history has been questioned. Some cranial regions, particularly the face and neurocranium, are believed to be influenced by the environment and prone to converge...
