We've really fucked ourselves into cattle, huh?

It's most probably reversible. Craniums found from the same period and same ethnic groups have such differences depending on their lifestyle. (I.e. homo domesticus James C Scott).

I like my forehead tho

>>82239758 (OP)
Neanderthals had such massive faces. They must have been terrifying rape monsters. Fun fact, my skull is actually slightly neanderthal in shape (I have an elongated rear section of the skull and have an occipital bun)

>It's most probably reversible
You can't just magically become a neanderthal

>>82239758 (OP)
Shouldn't have come down from the trees. Life was better before.

>>82239782
True. Eating habits, dentistry, and such. Wisdom teeth.
I guess you're right that it probably can be reverse but that would also take a radical shift in environment. i.e. back to nature, and a radical shift in breeding habits back to near stone age days.

gimme that sloping brow

>>82239787
Yet the part that mattered remained tiny

>>82239815
Frontal lobe? That section of my head is probably larger than average, too. I have a big head.

>>82239827
Did/do you have all four wisdom teeth? I did.

>>82239794
Not you. But, at this point (less than 150 generations since the beginning of agriculture in Europe), the most probable is that cranial differences between today's human and hunter gatherer is mostly upbringing (as in eating habits, muscle training, dentistry and such).

>>82239850
No, I still have a small jaw, unfortunately.

>>82239862
We don't eat enough hard things to make wisdom teeth come in naturally, basically. This is why a lot of people have tinnitus or eustachian tube issues. The jaw doesn't form properly. Especially since grain and wheat I believe

>>82239873
I had all four but I was a stupid teen and let dentists rip them out. Should've thought about it. WISDOM teeth damnit.

Many early modern European human skulls actually have archaic traits associated with them due to interbreeding with Neanderthals. Check out Predmosti 3, his skull is actually slightly elongated, and his face and brow ridge are strong with forward projection. If I'm remembering correctly, Predmosti 3 was actually around 9-10% Neanderthal

>>82239862
Similar is Oase 2, who also was around 9% Neanderthal. Oase 2 only features an elongated braincase, however, and lacks strong forward projection of the face.

>>82239879
That's what I heard too I believe. The main problem stemming from that is the reduced brain volume we have as a consequence

>>82239896
Why is that relevant?

>>82239758 (OP)
I'm an autist and my skull looks like the right.

>>82239927
It's relevant because to a degree, the archaic traits seen in pre-agriculture humans can be attributed to archaic hominid admixture. Over time these traits get bred out of existence. Reverting back to a traditional lifestyle won't necessarily make humans look the way they once did, at least not for a long time.

>>82239930
I noticed a peculiar head shape in autistic people in STEM. I wonder if it's my schizophrenia acting up or if there's really a link between an elongated face, square jaw and STEM studies

>>82239758 (OP)
I have craniosynostosis prob due to my mother drinking during pregnancy.

Like my skull is actually deformed but I'm not a complete retard surprisingly

Another interesting skull is the Iwo Eleru from Nigeria. This skull is only 10-15K years old but has a mixture of very archaic features. No DNA testing has been completed on the specimen (that I know of), but it's thought that this individual was the descendant of an archaic branch of sapiens that remained isolated in northwestern Africa until very modern times. Humans may have been building Gobekli Tepe in Turkey when this gorilla ass nigga was running around

>>82239944
I'm inclined to think it plays only a negligible part in brain volume differences. Especially compared to jaw development.

Acting on intuition there.

>>82239985
I wouldn't say that. Neanderthals had a slightly higher cranial capacity on average, as did Denisovans (see the harbin man cranium which has recently been attributed to Denisovan humans). Another researcher named Xiujie Wu believes the Homo Juluensis skulls are actually Denisovan and that Homo Longi is yet another hominid species that also coexisted. the Homo Juluensis individuals have cranial capacities of around 1800 CC (which is absolutely huge). I have read multiple papers theorizing that the growth in human skulls in certain regions can be linked to our mixture with other hominids.

over for sedentary graincels
