Because bipedal locomotion is one of the earliest characteristics of human functional anatomy to appear in the fossil record, its associated anatomy in early hominins has significant implications for human evolution (Stern, 2000). The skeleton and overall morphological characteristics of the foot in <em>Australopithecus afarensis</em> provide important clues about the origins of upright bipedal locomotion.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Biocommunication}, author={Milman, Eleanor and Daugherty, John and Alemseged, Zeresenay and Brennan, Kevin and Lebowicz, Leah}, year={2019}, month={Nov.} }
