Dental Field Theory: An Application to Primate Evolution

AVERY M. HENDERSON 1 and DAVID L. GREENE 1

1 Department of Anthropology, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80302, USA

A major complicating factor in using dental data in analyses of taxonomic and evolutionary problems is the existence of morphogenetic fields. Efforts are made to abstract tooth crown size morphogenetic fields of the orangutan. The utility of coefficients of variability and factor analysis, to this end, is presented. Resulting morphogenetic dental crown size fields are described and related to hominoid dental evolution.
