# Homo floresiensis Contextualized: A Geometric Morphometric Comparative Analysis of Fossil and Pathological Human Samples

Karen L. Baab, Kieran P. McNulty, Katerina Harvati, 2013. _PLOS ONE 8(7): e69119_.

3D geometric morphometrics of LB1's cranium against fossil hominins and microcephalic and other pathological modern humans; LB1 groups with fossil Homo, closest to H. erectus, not with the pathological samples.
