We compared these modern canids with four fossils from different Upper Pleistocene (Grotta Romanelli, Terrasses de la Riera dels Canyars) and Holocene (Portalón) sites of the Mediterranean region. The specimens were analysed using both traditional and geometric (2D) morphometric techniques. Our results characterise wolves’ greater mandible size (dental series), greater cranial width and length, and less elongated snout.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/book parthttps://doi.org/10.32028/9781803273549https://www.archaeopress.com/Archaeopress/download/9781803273549open access599.742.11domesticationCanis lupusmorphometryskullPleistoceneMamíferos2401.01 Anatomía Animal
