26. Paleoanthropology's Scholars
    The History Channel s Ape to Man takes a smart look at the people behind the science.

    Extractions: Louis and Mary Leakey in Tanzania's Olduvai Gorge in 1959 discussing the 1.75-million-year-old remains of Zinjanthropus boisei (later reclassified Australopithecus boisei ), a discovery that cemented humanity's African origin (Courtesy History Channel) [LARGER IMAGE] At first we thought a large brain set us on the path to exceptionality, but Neandertals' brains were often larger. Then we thought tool use distinguished us, but many primates use crude tools. Now the dominant idea concerning our uniqueness is that we first branched out into unexplored evolutionary territory when we stood upright. These changing ideas of what sets us apart from the other apes, and how each reflects the culture and era in which it was developed, are the focus of the History Channel's Ape to Man , a two-hour-long documentary premiering Sunday, August 7, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Ape to Man looks at the 150-year-long history of the search for the missing link between apes and humans. It's the right approach for a historical narrative documentary to take, because it allows the focus to fall on the scholars driving the science. We get the moment-of-discovery reenactments so beloved by pop history shows (and they're relatively well-acted), but we also get a good idea of the resistance scholars faced from disbelieving colleagues and an ape-resistant public.

"Clark's central importance since the 1950s has been to make paleoanthropology what it is today - that is, the integration of archaeology, geology, biological anthropology, ecology, evolutionary biology, primatology and ethnography," said White. "When you look at a modern paleoanthropology project, whether in Tanzania or South Africa or Ethiopia, you find Clark's stamp everywhere. He personified modern paleoanthropology."

    Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Homo erectus Paleoanthropology is a specialized branch of Paleontology and physical anthropology involved with the study of ancient human beings . Paleoanthropolgists are those investigating the origin and subsequent evolution of human physiology by examining fossil remains and other ancient evidence. Mainstream anthropologists and archaeologists believe that humans began domesticating animals and plants in the Middle East about 10-12,000 years ago. The earliest known civilization, the Sumerians, developed in Mesopotamia about 7,000 years ago, after humans had developed agriculture sufficiently. This is the same location where many of the early Biblical stories in Genesis are set. Creationists take the book of Genesis as recorded history. Genesis begins with an account of and original antediluvian civilization which no longer exists. Details regarding this first civilization are minimal, except for a terse genealogy, accounts of men like Enoch, and of a group of half-gods, half-men known as

    Extractions: var OAS_version = 10; var cntr = 1; Login / Sign-up Logout Edit Profile This week I stumbled upon a fascinating discovery by a University of Texas paleoanthropologist named John Kappelman. He, along with Turkish and German colleagues, found a 500,000-year-old skull cap of the species homo erectus in western Turkey. The young man, because of markings on the skull, almost certainly died of tuberculosis. UT-Austin The stylus points to tiny lesions 1-2 mm in size found along the rim of bone. The lesions were formed by tuberculosis that infects the brain. Until now scientists had thought TB jumped into humans only recently, with the domestication of cattle. The disease, therefore, infected humans much earlier than previously thought. But the really fascinating insight comes when you consider the implications of such a disease existing so long ago in a species believed to be the first hominins to walk out of Africa. From the story I wrote Scientists believe the early humans who came out of Africa had very dark skin because they lived near the equator, where dark skin laden with melanin would have protected them from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays.

    http://www.eva.mpg.de/evolution/files/virtual_palaeo.htm
    
    Extractions: Metanavigation: In the near future, the anatomy of the fossil hominins that usually represent rare and precious museum items, will no longer be studied on the specimens themselves but on virtual representation. Gathering these numerical data, building virtual collections and being top notch in their analysis is one main axis of activity of the paleoanthropology group. It implies a strong network of collaboration with other institutions at the international level. Providing top-level technical facilities in Leipzig indeed attract the collaboration of museums and research teams that, so far, at the European level, have only relied on medical institutions to perform computer tomography analyses. Among other advantages, these techniques of imaging give access to the comparative exploration of anatomical structures in living humans and hopefully soon in living Primates. Comparisons with the fossil data with respect to such issues as growth and development, skeletal and dental maturation, evolution of the brain and its blood supply become possible.

    http://english.cas.ac.cn/Eng2003/page/SRA/D_1.htm
    
    Extractions: Fig.1:Jehol Biota Among the most distinguished discoveries recently made by the research groups is a four-winged dinosaur Microraptor (Fig. 2), which preserves feathers in the forelimb, hindlimb and the tail and provides indisputable support for the dinosaurian ancestry of birds and much new evidence on the evolution of feathers and flight.The primitive birds from the Jehol Biota represents the most important discoveries after the oldest bird Archaeopteryx . Among them, Jeholornis (Fig. 3), a long-tailed bird, not only represents the earliest evidence for seed eating diet adaptation in avian evolution but also provides additional support for a close relationship between birds and dromaeosaurid dinosaurs. Their study of the Jehol Biota by the research group of the Jehol Biota also established the global significance of this Lower Cretaceous biome. Their work shows that the Jehol Biota represents almost all major clades of Lower Cretaceous terrestrial and freshwater vertebrates, a wide variety of invertebrates and a diverse flora, providing a rare, incredibly detailed picture of an intact Early Cretaceous terrestrial ecosystem. By comparing the Jehol Biota with contemporaneous biota in other areas, they concluded that the Jehol Biota is the cradle and radiation center for many vertebrate groups rather than the refugium of relics as previously proposed by other workers.

    http://hotcupofjoe.blogspot.com/2006/11/paleoanthropology-multiregional-versus.h
    
    Extractions: skip to main skip to sidebar The multiregional evolution hypothesis asserts that modern humans are the present manifestation of older species of hominids including Homo neanderthalensis and H. erectus. The replacement hypothesis, however, states that modern humans are a new species and that the older species mentioned above were replaced. In the latter hypothesis, transition of archaic H. sapiens to modern doesn't occur anywhere in the world except Africa at around 200,000 years ago. Anatomically modern humans then dispersed outward to other regions, replacing other hominid species by out-competing them for resources or by displacing them from environments optimal for their continued survival. There is, however, a very persistent group of paleoanthropologists who adhere to the multiregional evolution argument, which doesn't, by the way, imply that there was parallel evolution or multiple origins of modern humans. This theory suggest that genetic exchange explains how differentiation, geographic variation, and evolutionary change within humans occurred.
