However, different facial configurations may develop under comparable selective regimes. For example, the Neanderthal high and projected face and the Inuit broad and flat face are hypothesized to be the consequence of (1) life in a cold climate, and (2) excessive paramasticatory stresses focused on the anterior dentition. In this study, the second of these two hypotheses is tested using finite element analyses of a monkey skull. Results indicate that incisor loading induces heavy stress in the anterior midface of macaques. Additional analyses using incremental increases in the anteroinferior tilt of the skull to simulate different magnitudes of facial projection revealed that comparable muscular force generates less stress in a less\u2010projected face. However, the findings of our final analyses, which attempted to combine biting with the incisors and pulling with the hands, differed from the analyses that mimicked only incisor loading (without any sort of anterior pulling component). These findings suggest that shortening the face may be the most effective way to compensate for anterior dental loading but not necessarily offset the forces incurred when using the anterior dentition as a vice for various paramasticatory behaviors. Although Neanderthals may have frequently loaded their anterior dentition, countervailing selection pressures, such as the inclusion of tough foods in the diet that demanded molar grinding, may have selected for a longer face with a lower load\u2010 to lever\u2010arm ratio.
