Expansion of the primate forehead and evolution of the face
Brow ridges are interesting,
but a larger and larger forehead signals an expansion of the forebrain that ultimately gave humans the ability to refine tools, tell stories, and become more attractive to the opposite gender.
Here is a graphic that shows how that happened in broad strokes according to the large reptile tree (LRT, 2340 taxa) Fig. 1.
No chimps here. No australopithecines either. Those taxa unrelated to humans (bipedal by convergence) have a ‘dished’ face and large forward facing nares lacking in the taxa shown here (Fig 1).
A small face and larger forehead
are traits we humans see in infants. So this is an example of neotony. The bone of the forehead is the frontal bone (blue).
