Overview

Antonio Rosas is affiliated with the Spanish National Research Council in Spain. Their research spans multiple fields, notably social sciences, earth and planetary sciences, and arts and humanities. This multidisciplinary approach incorporates subfields such as anthropology, archeology, paleontology, geometry and topology, and genetics.

Rosas's work focuses on key topics that include Pleistocene-era hominins and archaeology, evolution and paleontology studies, forensic anthropology and bioarchaeology, archaeological and geological studies, archaeology and ancient environmental studies, morphological variations and asymmetry, as well as primate behavior and ecology.

The scientist has contributed to several recent publications, including:

  • The evolutionary history of Neanderthal and Denisovan Y chromosomes, 2020, Science
  • The position of Australopithecus sediba within fossil hominin hand use diversity, 2020, Nature Ecology & Evolution
  • The earliest European Acheulean: new insights into the large shaped tools from the late Early Pleistocene site of Barranc de la Boella (Tarragona, Spain), 2023, Frontiers in Earth Science
  • A review on the Pleistocene occurrences and palaeobiology of Hippopotamus antiquus based on the record from the Barranc de la Boella Section (Francolí Basin, NE Iberia), 2023, Quaternary Science Reviews
  • An assessment of the late Middle Pleistocene occipital from Apidima 1 skull (Greece), 2020, L Anthropologie

Their frequent coauthors include Antonio García-Tabernero, Darío Fidalgo, Palmira Saladié, Maximiliano Fero Meñe, and Markus Bastir. Collaboration within this network has contributed to various research outputs related to human evolution and prehistoric studies.

Publications are frequently found in venues such as:

  • Journal of Human Evolution
  • Quaternary Science Reviews
  • Scientific Reports
  • Cuaternario y Geomorfología
  • Spanish Journal of Palaeontology

Antonio Rosas has also contributed to book publications, including a catalogue titled "Catálogo de la Exposición Historia Natural de Guinea Ecuatorial (Exhibition Catalogue)" published by Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas in 2023.
