    Abstract Under the assumption that life history in general and longevity in particular play an important part in the study of evolutionary patterns and processes, this paper focuses on predicting longevity changes across hominid evolution and attempts to throw light on the significance of such changes. We also consider some statistical arguments in the analysis of hominid life history patterns. Multiple regression techniques incorporating primate body weight and brain size data are used to predict hominied longevity and the results are compared to those in the literature. Our findings suggest that changes in hominid longevity are more likely to follow brain size than body weight, and that multiple regression techniques may be an appropriate avenue for future studies on life history variation in human evolution.

    Notes:
    Conclusions Given that we have attempted a very broad sweep through two of the major issues in anthropology (human evolution and environmental change) it would be impossible to have any easy conclusions. In closing I would therefore stress only the major points in their simplest form. First, hominid evolution does not consist of just two dispersals (out of Africa 1 and 2) but of multiple such events. Unraveling these, and the ecological conditions underlying them, should be a major focus for research. Second, if hominid evolution does consist of multiple dispersals, then it follows that there must have been multiple local extinctions. Although we tend to think of human demography in terms of growth, demographic collapse is equally important in evolution. Third, where hominids have had an effect on the environment it has tended to occur in two very specific contexts-the colonisation of new regions and the development of agriculture. And finally, if we are interested in the human evolution and the environment, coevolution rather than anthropogenic change may be the more useful concept.
