The Long Limb Bones of the StW 573 Australopithecus Skeleton from Sterkfontein Member 2: Descriptions and Proportions

J. L. Heaton, T. R. Pickering, K. J. Carlson, R. H. Crompton, T. Jashashvili, A. Beaudet, L. Bruxelles, K. Kuman, A. J. Heile, D. Stratford, R. J. Clarke

This paper describes the long limb bones of the StW 573 Australopithecus skeleton and compares its limb proportions to A.L. 288-1, suggesting different allometric development in early hominins.

Bilateral Asymmetry of the Forearm Bones as Possible Evidence of Antemortem Trauma in the StW 573 Australopithecus Skeleton from Sterkfontein Member 2 (South Africa)

A. J. Heile, T. R. Pickering, J. L. Heaton, R. J. Clarke

The paper examines bilateral asymmetry in the forearm bones of the StW 573 Australopithecus skeleton, hypothesizing it resulted from a fall and discussing its implications for behavior.
