"A human lower third molar from the Acheulean site of Cueva del Ángel (" by Francisco J. Bermúdez, Marina Martínez de Pinillos et al.
Objectives: To present a new dental specimen that will provide additional evidence for a better understanding of early European Upper Pleistocene hominin morphological variability. Materials and Methods: We described the morphology of this human right lower third molar at both the outer enamel surface and the enamel–dentine junction by means of micro-computed tomography. In order to better understand hominin diversity, our morphological and metrical results were compared with those of other hominins obtained from published research. We provide a direct aspartic acid racemization dating of th...
