Resumen

Dental development has evolved through time. Data about dental development in neandertals is ambiguous, some aspects seem to be similar to those observed in modern humans but others do no. We have studied dental development from the analysis of the perikymata packing pattern in anterior teeth and premolars in deandertals from Sidron. Perikymata become closer to the cervix like in modern humans but their number is lower in the second half of the crown. Therefore, neandertals from Sidron caracterise by shorter crown formation time than in modern humans which suggests in turn an accelerated development resulting probably as an adaptation to climatic change at the end of the Middle Pleistocene.
