Comparative Set Hyoids Neanderthal and Modern Human COMP-135 Our Comparative Set of Hyoids contains our Modern Human Adult Male Hyoid (from our Human Male Skeleton, SC-092-A) and our Neanderthal Hyoid (from our Neanderthal skeleton, SC-019-A, a reconstruction by Sawyer and Maley). The Neanderthal Skeleton reconstruction was based primarily on La Farrassie 1, with missing or incomplete elements filled in from other Neanderthal skeletons. The hyoid was constructed using an original cast from Kebara 2. The hyoid, a horseshoe-shaped bone, is unique in that it is the only bone not articulated to any other bone of the skeleton, instead being connected to the skull by ligaments and muscles. The hyoid is implicated in the evolution of speech development. |
