- Personal webpage of this researcher in Paleoanthropology at the National Research Centre on Human Evolution (CENIEH). Includes research lines, publications, fieldwork and curriculum vitae.
- Arizona State University's Institute for Human Origins reviews four million years of human evolution in an interactive documentary. Includes an extensive glossary, a bibliography, and an annotated set of links. [Requires Flash and a high-speed connection.]
- Two articles regarding theories of rapid evolution through biased gene conversion and loss of allelic variation, leading to the winnowing of the bushy hominid tree.
- A speculative essay on primate evolution in East Africa in the period between approximately five million years BCE and two and one-half million years BCE, during which significant pre-human evolution took place and ending when recognizably-human, tool-using creatures first emerged.
- Provides information on this permanent exhibition at the American Museum of Natural History covering the evolution of humans over the last six million years.
- Provides an'interactive' graph that maps the journey of our hominid ancestors from 5 million years ago to present day with descriptions of the various species.
- The Hunterian Museum in Glasgow provides an online exhibition starting with the dryopithecine apes of the Miocine era and working through to modern humans.
- Demonstrates how our ancestors have changed over the last 4 million years. Provides information on the location and age of hominid discoveries and how the cranium and other features developed over time.
- Comprehensive information from Wikipedia on the emergence of Homo sapiens as a distinct species from other hominans, great apes and placental mammals.
- Traces origins from ape ancestors such as Australopithecus to modern man. Talks about Neanderthals and their relationship to the gorilla and chimpanzee.
- 3D gallery of the skulls of five modern primate relatives and five fossil ancestors of humans contains, each of which may be rotated through 360 degrees. With accompanying descriptions.
- Radio program discusses fossil discoveries that may provide the earliest documented evidence of toolmaking, and push the origin of homo sapiens back more than 400,000 years. A discussion featuring Donald Johanson and Blake Edgar.
- Class page to go along with Indiana University's anthropology class, A105. Lectures cover the human place among the pages, evolution theories, genetics and current research. Related resource links are included.
- A non-profit, multidisciplinary research organization, affiliated with Arizona State University, dedicated to the recovery and analysis of the fossil evidence for human evolution.
- The official visitor centres for the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site, Gauteng, South Africa. Provides information on the Sterkfontein Caves, the exhibition, and the other facilities for conferences, education and accommodation.
- A reference site for information on human evolution, with images of hominid specimens arranged by species and site, papers written by C David Kreger, and a bibliography.
- A forum for the scientific discussion of paleoanthropology, paleoprimatology, physical anthropology, cultural anthropology, Stone Age archeology, human origins, primate biology, and primate evolution.
- The list is sorted by species, going from older to more recent species. Within each species, finds are sorted by the order of their discovery. Each species has a type specimen which was used to define it.
- Article by Eric Delson of the National Center for Science Education outlining the process by which humans have evolved from pre-human primates in the last 15 million years.
- Picture and discussion of the fossil cranium TM 266-01-060-1 (Toumaï) found in Chad in 2001. It is estimated to be between six and seven million years old. Until other early hominid fossils are found to provide context it cannot be known how this species relates to the human, chimp, or even gorilla lines.
- Comparisons of newly-sequenced chimpanzee chromosome 22 and its counterpart, human chromosome 21, show that while the DNA differences are small, they are spread out to affect 83 percent of the proteins coded for. (May 26, 2004)
- The discovery of three Ethiopian skulls from 160,000 years ago, showing almost completely modern features, lends new support to the Out-of-Africa hypothesis. Includes information about handling of skulls after death and dating techniques used. (June 11, 2003)
