Excited to share this new #OpenAccess pub. It completely overturns our understanding of...nothing. It won't be in your newsfeed. Sometimes #science advances by basic, gut-it-out research. Would love comments about our approach to fossil alpha-taxonomy.

#PrimatePost 🦧🤔
Humans are the only #primates with a chin! In humans, the anterior part of the mandible (symphysis) protrudes forward, in line with the face, 💀 flatter than in other species.

From left to right, the skulls of a gorilla, chimpanzee and human, drawn in a pencil-like style. The himan shows a flatter face than the other apes. The chin is protruding forward in humans and backward in apes.
