Ancient teeth, phenetic affinities, and African hominins: Another look at where Homo naledi fits in.

Journal of human evolution - 1 Sept 2018

Abstract excerpt

A new species of Homo, Homo naledi, was described in 2015 based on the hominin skeletal remains from the Dinaledi Chamber of the Rising Star cave system, South Africa. Subsequent craniodental comparative analyses, both phenetic and cladistic, served to support its taxonomic distinctiveness. Here we provide a new quantitative analysis, where up to 78 nonmetric crown and root traits of the permanent dentition were...
