The global expansion from southern Africa by modern humans? Its signal may be shown more through the cranial shape of males than females

2023-09-28

Abstract excerpt

As the geographical distance between populations increases, populations are known to become more distant (dissimilar) in biological measures such as cranial shape. Relationships between geographical distance and biological distance are thought to be explained by modern humans having expanded from Africa. Expansion from Africa is also thought to explain why biological diversities (e.g., cranial shape diversity) dec...
