The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Aspects of human physical and behavioural evolution during the last 1 million years (2019, background): “This interaction between niche construction and physical adaptation was an important selective pressure in their evolution (Potts, 2012), and increasingly researchers are emphasizing this interplay between behaviour, physiology and anatomy as a positive feedback system (Antón and Snodgrass, 2012).”
Humans and Scavengers: The Evolution of Interactions and Ecosystem Services (2014, background): “This could have contributed further to larger body and brain sizes (Wrangham and Carmody 2010, Aiello and Antón 2012, Antón and Snodgrass 2012), which perhaps facilitated hunting success.”
Body Size, Size Variation, and Sexual Size Dimorphism in Early Homo (2012, background): “This observation is potentially important for translating inferences about epigenetic changes in modern human size and dimorphism to the fossil record (Antón and Snodgrass 2012; Kuzawa and Bragg 2012).”
Ecological Energetics in Early Homo (2012, background): “The DEE (kcal/day) also increases with body size (Leonard and Robertson 1997; Nagy, Girard, and Brown 1999; see also Antón and Snodgrass 2012).”
