Stone tool use is a key component of the hominin behavioral repertoire. A unique configuration of musculoskeletal traits in the human hand is compatible with effective stone tool use, and the question remains as to how humans acquired this redefined manipulation capability. The most widespread hypothesis is that, once liberated from locomotion, th...

The environmental conditions of captive hominoid primates can lead to modifications in several aspects of their behavior, including locomotion, which can then alter the morphological characteristics of certain anatomical regions, such as the knee or wrist. We have performed tridimensional geometric morphometrics (3D GM) analyses of the distal radia...
