Abstract

The application of a linear regression approach to hominid data shows that there is more regularity in hominid cranial capacity over time than has been supposed. Two outcomes of this analysis are: (1) the possibility that the South African Australopithecus africanus sites are older than the presently accepted estimates of perhaps around 2·5 million years and (2) the suggestion that the Ngandong (Solo) cranial material is also considerably older than generally assumed; probably, in excess of approximately 250,000 years B.P.
