| contents | <p>This paper explores a novel model of human evolution centered on co-sleeping behavior, thermoregulation, and ecological constraint. It proposes that side-lying sleep postures and prolonged physical contact played a significant role in shaping early Homo morphology and social behavior. Drawing on evidence from anatomy, paleoecology, and developmental biology, the model reframes certain traits—such as hair loss, shoulder structure, and adolescent growth patterns—as potential adaptations to nocturnal thermal stress and attachment dynamics.</p> |
