His argument was based on cranial measurements of skeletal remains from Chaluka Midden and mummified remains from Kagamil and Ship Rock b... | Population replacement; Paleo-Aleuts; Neo-Aleuts | 2006 |

 | Hawkes, Kristen | Life history theory and human evolution : a chronicle of ideas and findings | Fertility ends at similar ages in women and female chimpanzees, but humans usually live longer and mature later. We also differ from our closest living relatives in weaning infants before they can feed themselves. The comparisons pose questions about when and why the distinctively human life history... | 2006-01-01 |
