  • Title: An alternative method of estimating the cranial capacity of Olduvai Hominid 7.
    Author: Vaisnys JR, Lieberman D, Pilbeam D.
    Journal: Am J Phys Anthropol; 1984 Sep; 65(1):71-81. PubMed ID: 6437236.
    Abstract:
    The cranial capacity of Olduvai Hominid 7 is estimated to be 690 cc, with a standard uncertainty range of 538 to 868 cc. The estimate is derived from a systematic consideration of the relationships between Bregma-Asterion chords and cranial capacities obtained from a large sample of Homo sapiens and Pan troglodytes and from available fossil hominids. The estimation technique is applicable to other characters and specimens.
