CARTA: The Upright Ape: Bipedalism and Human Origins – Matthew Tocheri: Insights into Hominin Bipedalism from Gorilla Anatomy
In this presentation, Matthew Tocheri (Smithsonian Institution) shows how the morphology of four foot bones – the medial cuneiform, talus, calcaneus, and cuboid – is clearly distinguishable among living gorilla taxa in ways that are relevant to interpreting bipedal evolution in hominins.
