The paleoenvironment hypotheses used for describing the early
hominin diversity are Habitat specific hypothesis, Savanna based
hypothesis, turn over hypotheses, postural feeding hypothesis,
wood/ land hypothesis, variability selection hypothesis,
seasonality hypothesis. These hypotheses are mainly divided into
two types based on adaptation and species turnover.
From all these hypotheses,Savanna hypothesis and The postural
feeding hypothesis are used to describe the bipedalism.Savanna
hypothesis used to explain how largely settlement of bipedal
hominins on grounds occurred became increasingly bipedal. Postural
feeding hypothesis used to explain the partial bipedalism in early
hominins.
