Broca's cerebral asymmetry reflects gestural communication's lateralisation in monkeys (Papio anubis)

Broca's cerebral asymmetry reflects gestural communication's lateralisation in monkeys (Papio anubis)

Manual gestures and speech recruit a common neural network, involving Broca’s area in the left hemisphere. Such speech-gesture integration gave rise to theories on the critical role of manual gesturing in the origin of language. Within this evolutionary framework, research on gestural communication...
