    Proposal Description
    This research is been conducted as part of the Wisdom Teeth project (https://sites.google.com/york.ac.uk/wisdom-teeth/home) which aims to make use of the recent breakthrough made in using protein degradation to date tooth enamel. Applying it to regions where the palaeoenvironmental record can help us understand the sensitivity of Africa’s mammalian fauna to climate change. In doing so, it will provide a new, more accurately dated record for the African Pleistocene and Late Pliocene, unlocking insights into our own evolutionary history.
