hominid

Just because two genetically related hominid species from the same planet might have had religion doesn't mean a sentient starfish from Proxima Centauri probably does as well.

Consequently, every idea and every specimen in hominid paleontology is challenged and restudied and reinterpreted many times.

What he is suggesting is that a single hybrid made it's way back into the hominid population.

Another fruitful line of evidence for early hominid diets is from analogy with modern humans, rather than other living primates.

Plus a monolith appears on ancient Earth overnight without disturbing sleeping hominid animals, and somehow teaches them how to use tools.

Or we modify ourselves genetically to the point it isn't the current hominid species making the trip.

I don't scare easily, but any vaguely hominid-shaped creature with big eyes gives me a visceral feeling of fright.

My professor once told us that we were thinking of Australopithecines, a recent hominid, all wrong.

I don't understand why it's always been such a surprise that various hominid groups interbred.

Loring Brace [1] a specialist in the evolution of hominid teeth[2].

To even begin accepting such a theory I would require direct genetic evidence showing considerable horizontal gene transfer between porcine and hominid lines.

Those are good things for that particular hominid.

Recent discoveries of hominid fossils suggest that as early as Erectus, "humans" have been keeping their elders alive!

There is no "tradeoff" here for a reasonably vertebrate hominid.

As such, we can expect that there will be a slow, steady stream of "surprising" early finds that push back hominid evolution to much longer ago than previously appreciated.

Hominid used to mean that, but now it includes the great apes.
