Figure 3: Endocranial mean shapes.
From: Evolution of the base of the brain in highly encephalized human species
(a) Early Homo; (b) Midpleistocene Homo; (c) H. neanderthalensis; (d) H. sapiens. A modern human endocranium was used to visualize the means shape by warping its endocranial surface model onto the landmark configurations of several species means. Note differences in the outlines relating to frontal and temporal lobe shapes. (a) Triangular, (b) Circular, (c) Oval, (d) Rectangular.
