3D volumetric muscle reconstruction of the <i>Australopithecus afarensis</i> pelvis and limb, with estimations of limb leverage

2022-11-25

Abstract excerpt

To understand how an extinct species may have moved, we first need to reconstruct the missing soft tissues of the skeleton which rarely preserve, with an understanding of segmental volume and the muscular composition within the body. The Australopithecus afarensis specimen AL 288-1 is one of the most complete hominin skeletons. Whilst it is generally accepted that this species walked with an erect limb, the frequ...
