The use of crown and root morphology to estimate population relationships has a long history in dental anthropology. Over the past two decades, methods employing within forensic anthropology have been formalized with incorporation statistical models. This paper presents new web-based application (rASUDAS) that estimates ancestry unknown individuals based on their suite tooth traits. utilizes 21 independent traits were scored following Arizona State University Dental Anthropology System...
ABSTRACT Objectives Baboons possess sophisticated physical and social cognitive abilities; hence, the lack of evidence to date large‐scale behavioral variation in these primates is puzzling. Here we studied a candidate for such variation—the stripping bark from Acacia robusta trees consumption sap soft tissue underneath—in Gorongosa National Park, Mozambique. Materials Methods We surveyed an area inhabited by ~60 troops chacma baboons, recording availability characteristics target trees, as...
Abstract Age at death estimation in adult skeletons is hampered, among others, by the unremarkable correlation of bone estimators with chronological age, implementation inappropriate statistical techniques, observer error, and skeletal incompleteness or destruction. Therefore, it beneficial to consider alternative methods assess age skeletons. The decrease mineral density was explored generate a method human remains. A connectionist computational approach, artificial neural networks,...

A avaliou a viabilidade um programa Formação Desenvolvimento Socioemocional Educadores, que integra Psicomotricidade prática pedagógica. enfatiza corpo como elemento central compreensão do comportamento humano. Ela propõe pedagogia descoberta,...
Sex estimation through visual analysis of the distal humerus can contribute to establishing biological profile an unidentified skeletal individual. Using statistical shape modeling, trochlear constriction open curves and olecranon fossa closed outlines 151 humeri were digitized analyzed. The configurations exhibited strikingly different degrees sexual dimorphism when evaluated using linear discriminant with leave-one-out cross-validation. performed poorly, correctly classifying 63.6%...
Abstract Identifying novel medicinal resources in chimpanzee diets has historically presented challenges, requiring extensive behavioral data collection and health monitoring, accompanied by expensive pharmacological analyses. When putative therapeutic self‐medicative behaviors are observed, these events often considered isolated occurrences, with little attention paid to other ingested combination. For chimpanzees, resource combinations could play an important role maintaining well‐being...
Complete and accurate human skeletal inventory is seldom possible in archaeological forensic cases involving severe fragmentation. In such cases, mass comparisons with published references may be used as an alternative to assess completeness but they are too general for a case-by-case routine analysis. The objective solve this issue by creating linear regression equations estimate the total of skeleton based on individual bones.Total adult clavicle, humerus, femur, patella, carpal,...
Paleoanthropological research focus still devotes most resources to areas generally known be fossil rich instead of a strategy that first maps and identifies possible sites in given region. This leads the paradoxical task planning paleontological campaigns without knowing true extent likely potential each site and, hence, how optimize investment time resources. Yet answer key questions hominin evolution, paleoanthropologists must engage fieldwork targets substantial temporal geographical...
