The history of humanity in your face

(Arizona State University) The skull and teeth provide a rich library of changes that we can track over time, describing the history of evolution of our species. Prime factors in the changing structure of the face include a growing brain and adaptations to respiratory and energy demands, but most importantly, changes in the jaw, teeth and face responded to shifts in diet and feeding behavior.
