How it works

The slider linearly interpolates five simplified proxy skull geometries along the real hominin evolutionary sequence, blending braincase volume, frontal-bone slope, supraorbital (brow) ridge size, jaw protrusion and foramen-magnum position between neighbouring species. Drag the 3D view to orbit; click a mini skull in the row or a species button to jump straight to it.
