The human skull and jaw began to shrink starting a million years ago. The most likely explanation was that after the discovery of fire, they didn’t need the jaw strength that they previously did. I think that an argument could also be made that, with the invention of tools to scrape meat off the bone, there was also less jaw force required.

Which do you this it is, or is it both?
