<span>Lithification is the process by which sediment turns into hardened rock. There are three ways in which lithification can occur. These processes are called compaction, recrystallization and cementation

so sediments (sand) are buried the increase in pressure from the weight of the overlaying material pushes the grains closer together. the volume of sediment is reduced and the fluids between the grains are also squeezed out. this leaves the sandstone tightly compressed together this is lithification.

Vitek1552 [10]
The hypothesis of Rodman and Mchenry's involves mainly in energetic efficiency moving between patches of forest, to the account for the success of the bipedal adaptation in early hominids.
Habitual bipedalism was not driven by the encephalization, but vice versa. Mchenry pointed out that the theories and origin of bipedalism has a significance and speculative, it is important because they are implicated in differentiation.
