Maxillary Evolution is a theoretical framework within craniofacial evolution that specifically accounts for the morphological and functional changes in the maxilla over phylogenetic and ontogenetic timescales, distinguishing it from broader craniofacial analyses by focusing exclusively on the evolutionary dynamics of the upper jaw complex.
