spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/4180 Craniofacial variation, integration, and evolutionary diversification in baboons Off, Eileen Catherine Ackermann, Rebecca Rogers Archaeology Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 106-124). This dissertation aims to increase our understanding of Papio by: 1) examining variation within and between baboon species; 2) investigating morphological integration in the cranium, and; 3) determining what evolutionary processes produce diversification among baboon crania. Twenty-five three-dimensional cranial landmarks on six-hundred and sixty four baboon crania from seven species were digitized. Forty-seven linear distances, chosen to cover the skull with minimal redundancy, were calculated from these coordinate data. 2014-07-30T17:24:28Z 2014-07-30T17:24:28Z 2009 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4180 eng application/pdf Department of Archaeology Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
