Sexual dimorphism in the vertebral wedging of the human lumbar vertebrae and its importance as a comparative framework for understanding the wedging …

There is consensus that the generic modern human pattern of metameric vertebral body wedging is sexually dimorphic in modern humans.

These tried to establish whether the (male) Neanderthal lumbar vertebrae express a pattern that falls within or outside the range of modern human males.
