Little researched?

As far as I can tell there's next to no research on the topic of pointy ears either as a biological characteristic, or as a cultural icon. Please add any missing books or articles to the the external links/further reading section. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:32, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article currently doesn't even mention Mr. Spock, so yes, there is more research to do ;-). 2601:648:8202:96B0:0:0:0:7AC0 (talk) 06:54, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
