FOOTSTEP investigates the internal bone structure of the foot in various hominin species and modern humans to understand locomotor evolution. By employing advanced imaging techniques, the project aims to reveal how these species adapted to bipedalism and arboreal environments, enhancing our knowledge of human evolution…
During the course of human evolution, we have transitioned from the arboreal environment of our ancestors to become committed, terrestrial bipeds.
These changes are reflected in many aspects of our postcranial skeleton, including our highly specialised foot.
Due to the mosaic morphology of fossil hominins, it is remains unknown in what ways their locomotion differed from our own, both in a continued dependence on arboreal environments and in the way they walked bipedally.
As internal bone struct…
