Sexual dimorphism and ancestral variation in the pectoral and pelvic girdles of modern humans by Daphne R. Hudson, John H. Langdon

“…We test this assumption in two human populations and further examine what is needed to understand sexual dimorphism in the pectoral region. Modern human males have broad shoulders and narrow hips relative to females, lending males a more triangular torso. …”

Interactions of Neanderthals and Modern Humans: What Can Be Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA? by Krzysztof A. Cyran, Marek Kimmel

“…This paper reviews the state-of-the-art knowledge concerning the relationship between Neanderthals and Upper Paleolithic modern humans. The branching-process method is applied to infer the upper limit of hypothetical Neanderthal admixture, consistent with the evidence based on mitochondrial DNA sequences of contemporary modern humans, as well as Neanderthal and early modern European H. sapiens fossils. …”

Study of Modern Human Evolution via Comparative Analysis with the Neanderthal Genome by Musaddeque Ahmed, Ping Liang

“…Many other human species appeared in evolution in the last 6 million years that have not been able to survive to modern times and are broadly known as archaic humans, as opposed to the extant modern humans. It has always been considered fascinating to compare the modern human genome with that of archaic humans to identify modern human-specific sequence variants and figure out those that made modern humans different from their predecessors or cousin species. …”

Perikymata number and spacing on early modern human teeth: evidence from Qafzeh cave, Israel by Janet M. Monge, Anne-Marie Tillier, Alan Mann

“…The literature on perikymata numbers and packing as reported over the last 20 years, shows a huge range of variation within modern humans. The variation is so large in fact that virtually every fossil hominin species can be encompassed within the range except for some but not most of the robust australopithecines. …”

The effectiveness of teaching human evolution to 14-15-year-olds in Slovenia by Jelka Strgar

“…The achievements were low on the following topics: modern humans lived at the same time as Neanderthals and mammoths, and modern humans did not evolve from Neanderthals. …”

Mandible and teeth characterization of the Gravettian child from Gargas, France by Mona Le Luyer, Sébastien Villotte, Priscilla Bayle, Sélim Natahi, Adrien Thibeault, Bruno Dutailly, Carole Vercoutère, Catherine Ferrier, Christina San Juan-Foucher, Pascal Foucher

“…While affinities and interactions between archaic and modern human populations (i.e. 200,000-40,000 BP in Eurasia) at macro-evolutionary and continental scales have received considerable attention, there has been less emphasis on the population history of Europe between 40,000 and 26,000 BP (i.e. prior to the Last glacial Maximum, LGM) when only modern humans were present. …”

Comparaison entre espèces chez le primate et évolution du langage by Anne Reboul

“…Language is now specific to modern humans. One of the main problems regarding the evolution of language is that language does not fossilize, which makes it difficult to date its apparition in the homo lineage. …”

The Chronology of the Levantine Middle Palaeolithic Period in Retrospect by Ofer Bar-Yosef, Liliane Meignen

“…During the last 20 years, in the context of new interdisciplinary research projects in the Near East, significant changes have emerged in our ideas about the origin and early evolution of Modern Humans. Most of these changes are the result of the development and application of dating techniques such as TL and ESR but no less have the advent of lithic technological studies contributed refinements in the classical tripartite scheme of the Levantine Middle Palaeolithic. …”
