The body weight of AL 288-1 ('Lucy'): A new approach using estimates of skeletal length and the body mass index

A method of estimating the body mass of hominids by use of the skeletal length and physique index is described. The body mass indices (BMI) of female humans and female chimpanzees are known and this permits an estimate of the probable BMI for the female common ancestor and thus for female morphs int...
