[QUOTE]Originally posted by rasol: [QB] [QUOTE]What defines an African or an Australian, when you look at a skeleton? What makes a skeleton looks more African than modern European?[/QUOTE]Chris Stinger, one the leading Anthropologists who helped established the Out of Africa theorem, is noting that early 'Cro-Magnon' have many physical features that typify tropical Africans and Australians. This is profound statement since Cro-Magnon is one of the race-buzz-words of Eurocentric anthropology...supposedly meaning 'european', caucasian, and somehow...leucoderm or white. In fact Sringer is noting that early CroMagnon they still had a tendency towards tropical limb ratios whereas modern Europeans typically do not. They often had broad nasal passages that were lower than modern Europeans - more typical of Africans and Australians, and some had brow ridges similar to those seen in Austalians today. Prognathism was much more common in early European "Cro-Magnon" than in Europeans today. Chris Stringer's point is that this illustrates that early man came out of Africa, and that traits that are most particular to Europeans became predominent later. Hope this helps. ps - I don't know why you try to personalise or bait with some of your remarks. It's not necessary, helpful or polite. [/QB][/QUOTE]
