“…Revisited in context within the framework of an ongoing analytical revision of the whole human fossil assemblage from this important Early to Middle Pleistocene site complex (Di Vincenzo et al, ; Mussi et al, ; Profico et al, ; Puymerail et al, ; Zanolli et al, ), the present study used a new X‐ray computed tomography record to refine and successfully expand the original description of the c. 1.7 Ma old early Homo mandibular portion GAR IVE from Garba IV (Condemi, ; Zilberman et al, ), notably the radiographic‐based assessment of its inner structure and tooth developmental pattern (Condemi, ). Nonetheless, given the only modest resolution of our 2D‐3D virtual reconstructions, we admit there is still much information to retrieve from this unique specimen, likely representing a 2.5‐ to 3.5‐year old H. erectus/ergaster (Condemi, ; Coppens, ).…”

“…From 1965 to 1998 the activity of the French Archaeological Mission was directed by J. Chavaillon (Chavaillon, Chavaillon, Hours, & Piperno, ; Chavaillon & Piperno, ). Since 1999, research in the area has been carried on by the Italian Archaeological Mission at Melka Kunture and Balchit (Chavaillon & Piperno, ; Mussi et al, ; http://www.melkakunture.it/).…”
