i think it's possible they may have sought shelter in these places but it was so long ago that it looked very different when our hominid ancestors first came across them.
@@KenSoHappyCleggit’s not a problem, it’s called evidence. You can speculate all you want but without physical evidence none of your speculation can ever be considered factual! Of course people can always migrate and move especially during warmers climates, but to say where, when and why they migrated. Without physical evidence is just speculation
Nice informative video but some of the sound effects were a tad too loud and almost drowned out the narrative. I have a question- why did Neanderthals confine themselves to cold regions of the earth for hundreds of thousands of years living in such extreme conditions and not simply move to warmer regions? Were the warmer regions inhabited by other hominids and thus could have involved conflict ? Could Neanderthals have lived in the cold regions simply to avoid conflict?
Thanks for the advice. I will reflect it in the next video production. They enjoyed meat, and it is thought that red deer and mammoths were abundant in the area and lived there. They have lived in the area since 450 thousand years ago. Before the start of the Ice Age.
I agree with your statement, it should be the opposite. The narrative louder and the rest much softer as it distracts from the information given. The narration could have been slowed down as he sounds like he is racing through the script otherwise the content was interesting.
I purchased a stone hand ax from Germany awhile ago. It was from a private collection. Was from Homo Heidelbergensis. A separate species of early man. It fits perfectly in my hand.
They just can't have lived primarily in caves. There just aren't that many caves. How would the population of one cave make it hundreds of miles to the next viable cave, not to mention _finding_ it. _Nor_ do caves offer obvious protections superior to those of primitive man-made dwellings like yurts and teepees. What caves do, is help preserve the bones, so that we can find them. The bones that are not in caves or mashes or mud pits would have rotted away. Of the probably tiny percentage of Neanderthals who actually did happen to live in caves, _those_ are the ones whose bones we find(Hominids don't tend to live in mud pits or marshes.)
I think that's enough. They are thought to have competed with wild beasts such as cave bears for possession of the cave. The number of caves may not have been many, but they must have been trying to find a safer and warmer cave to survive the Ice Age.
@@geonomad1 There is archaeological evidence that Neanderthals built dwellings, after all a semi-nomadic or fully nomadic lifestyle is considered a usual feature of hunter-gatherer populations. Mammoth bones and tusks were used to form the bases of shelters See: 'Mammoths used as food and building resources by Neanderthals: Zooarchaeological study applied to layer 4, Molodova I (Ukraine)', 2012, Laëtitia Demay, Stéphane Péan, Marylène Patou-Mathis. They also made use of 'rock shelters', as distinct from caves, as dwellings. See: 'Turning a rock shelter into a home. Neanderthal use of space in Abric Romaní levels M and O', 2017, Maria Joana Gabucio , Icon,María Cristina Fernández-Laso &Jordi Rosell. The main reason for Neanderthal remains being found in caves is that caves offer better conditions for the preservation of organic material than elsewhere.
@@urseliusurgel4365 Thanks for your detailed explanation. Knowing that they would have lived other than in caves, there was a problem with expression. Sorry.
@@ekesandras1481 False. I've walked all over the Appalachians, Rocky mts., and a bit in the alps and the Sierra Nevada's backpacking, going off trail to explore rock outcroppings. Never found a cave in my life, despite looking.
I had to stop watching such an amazing video because of this reason. I get easily distracted and I am very sensitive to background noise (I cannot concentrate).
So Neanderthals lived in caves, maybe not exclusively but that's the trend it seems. I know next to nothing about the geology or land formations especially in Europe and central Asia...But my question is, would there have been enough caves to "house" most of this species? I don't know why I've always had such a tough time wrapping my head around how the numbers would work. As far as I imagine caves aren't rare but they're not that numerous, or are they? It's a strange thing to wonder about I suppose, but I'm curious! Or is it just an assumption they mostly lived in caves because that's where most are found.. maybe just due to them being better preserved? If anyone could help withmore info related to this, I'd be greatly appreciative. I am new to your channel , only a few videos down. I am glad I found it, really interesting and informative! Thanks
Very interesting but would benefit a lot from being proofread by an English speaker :) Also first child bearing age at 18~20 years old is much too late, especially given the early maturation. There is so much yet unknown, for example about reproductive age and also how hard was it to give birth (larger skull --> harder birth higher mortality of mothers and children).
I would volunteer to read for you, gratis!!! Let me know! Love your work and findings. This is my field of interest. My emphasis in College was Anthropology/Ethnic Studies!
5:06 the claim is made that Neanderthals did not use throwing spears. However, recent research suggests that their spears would have functioned quite effectively when thrown.
It should just be left open for further research. If there’s no evidence of throwing, then it shouldn’t be said that they were accustomed to throwing spears.
Neanderthals reached full maturity at only 15 years old. Modern humans reach full maturity in their early twenties. Early maturation is a classic Homo erectus trait. The Neanderthal also has a close cranial resemblance to H. erectus, more so than resemblance to H. sapiens. The Neanderthal's heavy brow ridge with sunken neckdown before the rise of the relatively flattened dome crania is a retained classic Homo erectus trait. Neanderthals were basally primitive and distinctly distant from modern humans. It is amazing that Neanderthals were able to successfully integrate into the modern human line despite the scale of the differences.
@@geonomad1 It is objective science that distinguishes Neanderthal from modern human. Misguided sentimental bias would seek to blur that distinction. The distinction is glaring when a Neanderthal skull is viewed from above looking down at it. The side view of the Neanderthal skull is especially distinct from modern human. The large chinless forward jutted jaw, and thick heavy browridge structure are in an entirely different direction from the fine delicate architecture of the modern human. Most representations of the Neanderthal are face-on views where the stark contrast from modern human become reduced and hidden.
What i can't comprehend what scientist claim humans came out of Africa. They dont mention how each species were different. If european. Asians, southeast asians are different from africans. There features. Color and height are all different.
They adapted certain features for each climate, without evolving into another species. Skin color is adapted to depending on climate. Over generations skin and hair texture can change.
@@lovelyla85 if humans came out of Africa why is it the height, skin color changed in each area of the world. Europeans, asians drastically changed. I dont believe it. Each came out of there own region.
@@satanshameer690 hard to say. Look at the Andamanese people of India’s Andaman Islands. They look negroid with curly hair. I believe the Aborigines of Australia are negritos mixed with extinct archaic populations.
I had to set the play back at 75% because the lame computer generated voice spoke much too fast. CG voices are ALWAYS annoying at very least and mispronounce easy words. The sound effects are way too loud and drown out the annoying voice. Other than that, this would've been THE BEST presentation I've watched thus far.
I am not a scientist, but common sense tells us that Neanderthals lived in cold regions only cuz it was too cold to try to search for a warmer place. Grizzlies, Sabor tooth tigers or other wild beasts would have devoured them. Watch the movie "Alpha". It's about a primitive tribe that struggled to survive.
Spoiler alert Europeans did not get their light skin blonde hair and blue eyes from Neanderthals. Neanderthals denisovans clovis cromagnon were dark skinned. This is a grasp to keep the cradle of civilization near Europe. The australius aboriginal is the Europeans origin. This is why a Swedish person has a higher genetic match to australius aboriginal than to an African. The problem is this moves the cradle away from Europe that is so desperately grasping to be oart of ancient history.
This was interesting. Thank you. Comments such as "The Neanderthals arrived such and such years ago" leave me a bit perplexed; they're stated and never addressed.
If I look at each prehistory stage, it seems to me incomprehensible how could each innovation, such acheulean LCT, Levallois technique or personal ornament, make its first appearence at the same time in Africa and in West Eurasia... In your opinion this is convergence or Direct link? (Sorry for my imperfect english)
You also forgot the genetic bottleneck caused by the eruption of the super volcano Mt Toba 74,000 years ago. This reduced the human population world wide to, according to scientists, to aproximately 6000 individuals. And I figure that this supposedly included Denisovans and Neanderthals
I enjoyed this doco but personally, the pops & zips & whams sound effects begun to drive me nuts. The sounds were often used when digital narrator began speaking drowning the digital voice out. Seems totally incongruous to use cartoon sound effects on a serious ancient history early neanderthal overview.
Another Error, Modern Europeans have 2-5% Neanderthal DNA and in longer unbroken segments than Asians implying direct and more recent descent, a paper came out recently within the last 2 years stating that Asians did not infact have more Neanderthal DNA than Europeans and that it just appeared that way because Asians have Denisovan DNA plus Neanderthal DNA which look very similar comparatively, when they minused the Added Denisovan DNA Asians has roughly the same amount as Europeans but in more broken non continuous segments, Today the Highest percentages are in Utan Whites (Mormons) of English descent, UK population and secondly Tuscany Italians, Also the propaghanda that the earliest Europeans were darker has also been debunked when samples from western Europe 50-28 kya show lighter pigmentation as well as The genes for Blue eyes, it's only after the end of the last ice age 10-13 kya that darker looking Europeans start to arrive due to admixture, except in the ancient central Asian Samples such as Kostenki 14, Ust Ishim, Mal'Ta Boy etc, Gedmatch literally banned the eye color predictor because I was running both ancient Neanderthal and EEUPH samples through it and everything from western Europe shows up blue eyed odysee.com/@4Mypeople:f/neanderthal-dna-run-through-the-gedmatch:b
Genetics have already shown that the earlier Europeans where darker the early gene variation you are talking about didn’t even make up half of the pigmentation so they where still fairly dark. As for the blue eye gene I’m not sure what you are talking about, perhaps you are talking about a gene variation in Neaderthals that wasn’t passed on. Genetics does not show that darker Europeans arrived due to admixture they actually show the exact opposite. Your link is unreliable at best.
@@TmanRock9 False Europeans don't get darker Genes till after the end of the last ice age and the genes for blue eyes were already present in neanderthals as well as pale skin genes which were inherited directly as I've proven by uploading Their Genome and comparing it to my own on my Odysee Channel, all ancient Neanderthal Samples from Croatia to Western Europe have more Blue eyed genes than Brown and only one gene for tanning SLC that I also have and am not dark at all but I tan well in the summer, I''m 4% Neanderthal and my Cousin Joe is 5%, 23 and me lies about the percentages anyways because they only test for 700,000-1 million base pairs out of 3 Billion, but I'll buy a while genome kit soon and get the actual Neanderthal percentage, Blue eyed genes are older than 50,000 years and are the same Genes in me as Neanderthals as I'm homozygous for their markers and the rS Numbers are the same.
@@thegreatconvergence8422 this is also false. We aren’t sure that they had blue eyes and they do not posses the gene variation for blue yes that modern humans do. The gene variations for light skin only made up maybe 1/3 of the pigmentation meaning Neanderthals where fairly dark for the most part. Fair skin didn’t evolve until much later when several other gene variations came together.
@@TmanRock9 Dude I was literally browsing the Vindija 33.25 genome the other day, there were at least 9 identical SNP's for blue eyes as mine, their Autosomal DNA is stored on my computer, she had one SNP for Brown and the rest were Blue and one Grey blue, which means she has Green eyes
Very well done, my former channel 4mypeople was banned for telling the truth about Neanderthals, only part way through will critique and watch the rest
Very interesting theory about the early Europeans being much darker. All this time I was under the impression that Africans we're the Neanderthals. Many in America were taught to believe that Africans were Sub Human (since the slavery days until about 25-30 years ago) yet they were the first humans. But it makes sense about Eve being the first woman out of Africa.
The ooa (out of Africa) theory has been discredited...I haven't got a link for you, but just Google out of Africa debunked or something, and do your own research. Also genetic testing shows there is no relation between neanderthal and black Africans.
@@weaponscommanderroringusan5625 Actually "OOA" makes more sense to me as a person from a three thousand year old culture. There had to be a migration out of somewhere lol.
Neanderthals favored hunting mammoth calves. Angry mammoth mothers and heard members damaged many a Neanderthal. "Rodeo type" injuries were common among Neanderthals. Mammoth calves were probably highly seasonal source of food. The hunting season must have been frantic as well as highly dangerous.
The dead ones didn't make it back to the cave to be discovered as fossils bones. Only the lucky ones with relatively minor injuries get discovered. Bison probably got a few too. It is established that Neanderthals hunted mammoth calves.
When Spaniards arrived to America they found people eating others. Same has been found in Africa too even during the last century. Not only Neardentals practiced cannibalism.
Their "appearance"" went "extinct", but not their "blood" descendants...Nephilim, (people of the Caucasus Mountains) whose "appearance" looks more like modern humans, but sadly, however, whose characteristics, ways, and behaviours are "still" in existence in them.
Larger brain size doesn't equal in more intelligence. Sperm Whales have the largest brains campared to other mammals but they're less intelligent than crows.
Poor things they didn't mess with anyone, they're 10x stronger than sapien sapiens, and absolutely had to be hibernating when impregnated, and their men eaten. They wrote, had music before sapien sapiens. So sad.
Neanderthals were the first Europeans. Their population was bolstered by new populations of people from Africa. They were essentially swallowed up by modern man and preserved in later generations.
When I heard tha Neardentals got extinct I thought that... They didn't get extinct because we carry their genes. They were our ancestors and we are the common descendants of them and all other kind of human subspecies or races that have been interbreeding non stop at least since half a million years to the present. 6°C less than today is no reason for living in caves, although I understand that only their paintings inside ca es survived the winds and the rains that eroded everything else they built. I see that nobody questions what magazines write. Nobody thinks for themselves?
So I guess Neanderthals large nasal passages and wider breathing tubes made it to where they wouldn't have the snoring issues that modern humans deal with. That probably means that it was rare for them to have sleep apnea either.
what a video! i stil wonder... if those Neanderthals drawing on the wall could tell us they were able to simbolic expression as we were, since those painting are quite simple, not complex like animals painted on caves.
@@geonomad1 He has a point. If in similar environment one is able to maintain cultural edge over span of millennia, then the edge is most likely actually in genes and culture is just manifestation of it.
The use of the words "married" and "marriage" is anachronistic, and suggests arrangements about which we know nothing. Surely words and phrases like "interbred" and "produced children" are more accurate for circumstances which might have been, for instance, casual or forced.
After listening to the Harvard review on Neanderthals one of the things that got my attention when it was asked were Neanderthals as intelligent as humans. Professor says he imagines not because Neanderthals had a 300,000 year Headstart they developed probably from Homo erectus before humans and we caught up very quickly and surpass them
The intelligence of Neanderthals is thought to be comparable to that of modern humans. However, I believe that modern humans have a better ability to create collective intelligence than them.
The technological advancement of the neanderthals over hundreds of thousands of years didn't move much beyond stone hand axes, clubs and short stout spears. Humans on the other hand were unstoppable with their continuous rapid advancement . I suppose we will never know why
Neanderthals were historically seen as dumb and not able to speak until it was discovered that they make up 2-3% of the DNA of non Africans. You can guess why the shift took place. 😂
It is hard to believe that a species of people who resembled gorillas with a higher higher power would have lived in peace with modern humans. We of the same species hate ourselves and harm ourselves, the more they certainly saw us as a dish and source of fun ! In our traditions there is a fear of trolls and monsters ,where does this fear come from!

Well done where! Because the story is not all facts...
The reason we find bones in caves is because nothing destroys them there. This doesn’t necessarily mean they didn’t live outside caves!
You may be right. There are many ruins outside the cave. Most human bones have been found in caves.
He is right! Geonad you have a real problem of limiting populations to the places and times their fossils survived from

sorry. I will improve it from the next video.
@@geonomad1 Thank you for your consideration. I'm finding your videos very informative. This is information I've not seen otherwise.
Found the content interesting, but the computer generated dialogue, audio sound effects off-putting.
I'm sorry. Thank you for your understanding.
We don't know if they only lived in caves as nothing else could possible be found, at least not yet.
Recently, I have seen information that the remains of Neanderthals have also been found in Africa.
@@geonomad1 The road out of africa was obviously not marked "One Way Only"
Disliked the robot voice and the sound effects were just loud and weird.
I'll try to improve it.
Sapience? What? Better editing is called for. Misspellings give me pause as to accuracy of the info.
I enjoyed this doco but personally, the pops & zips & whams sound effects begun to drive me nuts. The sounds were often used when digital narrator began speaking drowning the digital voice out. Seems totally incongruous to use cartoon sound effects on a serious ancient history early neanderthal overview.
I will try to improve in other videos.
The first europeans were the Homo erectus, the second Homo heidelbergensis, the third the neanderthals, the fourth Cro magnon.
I mean the first European among modern humans.
I would say that the Neanderthals were the first European Fully humans.
Another Error, Modern Europeans have 2-5% Neanderthal DNA and in longer unbroken segments than Asians implying direct and more recent descent, a paper came out recently within the last 2 years stating that Asians did not infact have more Neanderthal DNA than Europeans and that it just appeared that way because Asians have Denisovan DNA plus Neanderthal DNA which look very similar comparatively, when they minused the Added Denisovan DNA Asians has roughly the same amount as Europeans but in more broken non continuous segments, Today the Highest percentages are in Utan Whites (Mormons) of English descent, UK population and secondly Tuscany Italians, Also the propaghanda that the earliest Europeans were darker has also been debunked when samples from western Europe 50-28 kya show lighter pigmentation as well as The genes for Blue eyes, it's only after the end of the last ice age 10-13 kya that darker looking Europeans start to arrive due to admixture, except in the ancient central Asian Samples such as Kostenki 14, Ust Ishim, Mal'Ta Boy etc, Gedmatch literally banned the eye color predictor because I was running both ancient Neanderthal and EEUPH samples through it and everything from western Europe shows up blue eyed odysee.com/@4Mypeople:f/neanderthal-dna-run-through-the-gedmatch:b
Genetics have already shown that the earlier Europeans where darker the early gene variation you are talking about didn’t even make up half of the pigmentation so they where still fairly dark.
As for the blue eye gene I’m not sure what you are talking about, perhaps you are talking about a gene variation in Neaderthals that wasn’t passed on.
Genetics does not show that darker Europeans arrived due to admixture they actually show the exact opposite.
Your link is unreliable at best.
@@TmanRock9 False Europeans don't get darker Genes till after the end of the last ice age and the genes for blue eyes were already present in neanderthals as well as pale skin genes which were inherited directly as I've proven by uploading Their Genome and comparing it to my own on my Odysee Channel, all ancient Neanderthal Samples from Croatia to Western Europe have more Blue eyed genes than Brown and only one gene for tanning SLC that I also have and am not dark at all but I tan well in the summer, I''m 4% Neanderthal and my Cousin Joe is 5%, 23 and me lies about the percentages anyways because they only test for 700,000-1 million base pairs out of 3 Billion, but I'll buy a while genome kit soon and get the actual Neanderthal percentage, Blue eyed genes are older than 50,000 years and are the same Genes in me as Neanderthals as I'm homozygous for their markers and the rS Numbers are the same.
@@thegreatconvergence8422 this is also false. We aren’t sure that they had blue eyes and they do not posses the gene variation for blue yes that modern humans do. The gene variations for light skin only made up maybe 1/3 of the pigmentation meaning Neanderthals where fairly dark for the most part. Fair skin didn’t evolve until much later when several other gene variations came together.
@@TmanRock9 Dude I was literally browsing the Vindija 33.25 genome the other day, there were at least 9 identical SNP's for blue eyes as mine, their Autosomal DNA is stored on my computer, she had one SNP for Brown and the rest were Blue and one Grey blue, which means she has Green eyes
Please share my two brief videos with other people. Thanks.
OK!
Very well done, my former channel 4mypeople was banned for telling the truth about Neanderthals, only part way through will critique and watch the rest
I like the sounds . Makes my coffee ☕️ better too .
Very interesting theory about the early Europeans being much darker. All this time I was under the impression that Africans we're the Neanderthals. Many in America were taught to believe that Africans were Sub Human (since the slavery days until about 25-30 years ago) yet they were the first humans. But it makes sense about Eve being the first woman out of Africa.
Neanderthals went extinct between 30,000 and 25,000 years ago. Recent genetic studies prove that modern humans came from Africa.
What recent study
Was It the one where Denisovan and Neanderthals dna have been found in humans. Or the discovery of the Neanderthal with a modern human shoulder bone.
The ooa (out of Africa) theory has been discredited...I haven't got a link for you, but just Google out of Africa debunked or something, and do your own research. Also genetic testing shows there is no relation between neanderthal and black Africans.
@@weaponscommanderroringusan5625 Actually "OOA" makes more sense to me as a person from a three thousand year old culture. There had to be a migration out of somewhere lol.
Could they be the Horites and Dwarves of Legend? Maybe some populations were still around more recently? They sure sound a lot alike…
We never really bother to stop and think. Thank you my Neanderthal ancestors. Thanks a lot!!!
👍👍👍👍😊
And we still have to figure out why Late Neanderthals had Early Modern Human Y-DNA and MtDNA....
Personally, I have a question about whether we should distinguish between modern humans and Neanderthals.
@@geonomad1 yes it is racism 😁
To kill a mammoth you would only have to cut a leg ligament or spear the stomach then wait which is, I think, how sabre tooth tigers hunted too.
Yes I am thinking the same.
Neanderthals favored hunting mammoth calves. Angry mammoth mothers and heard members damaged many a Neanderthal. "Rodeo type" injuries were common among Neanderthals. Mammoth calves were probably highly seasonal source of food. The hunting season must have been frantic as well as highly dangerous.
@@georgehunter2813 a mammoth would kill a human not injure them. It’s more likely the rodeo injuries were hunting bison or horses.
The dead ones didn't make it back to the cave to be discovered as fossils bones. Only the lucky ones with relatively minor injuries get discovered. Bison probably got a few too. It is established that Neanderthals hunted mammoth calves.
They had flutes back then but I really doubt they played them like today. It was probily just a toy that made noise not an instrument of music.
Obviously they wouldn't have played as they do today. Perhaps it was used as a means of signaling.
@@geonomad1 that's a really good idea. I can totally see that.
When Spaniards arrived to America they found people eating others. Same has been found in Africa too even during the last century. Not only Neardentals practiced cannibalism.
Their "appearance"" went "extinct", but not their "blood" descendants...Nephilim, (people of the Caucasus Mountains) whose "appearance" looks more like modern humans, but sadly, however, whose characteristics, ways, and behaviours are "still" in existence in them.
This is about science not your bigoted mythology.
What characteristics are you talking about?
Getting genocided by Homosapiens?
I'll subscribe when the sound effects are given the pink slip.
I thought Neanderthals were the first Europeans
The neanderthals had larger brains than homo sapiens. Does that mean they were more intelligent than anatomically modern humans?
Just because the brain has a large capacity doesn't mean it's more intelligent than modern humans. There is only a small chance that it will.
In many ways they were smarter esp during the ice age. I mainly blame the huge increase of temperature for their demise.
Larger brain size doesn't equal in more intelligence. Sperm Whales have the largest brains campared to other mammals but they're less intelligent than crows.
Poor things they didn't mess with anyone, they're 10x stronger than sapien sapiens, and absolutely had to be hibernating when impregnated, and their men eaten. They wrote, had music before sapien sapiens. So sad.
It seems clear that they were stronger than modern humans.
The sound effects suck!
I can't hear what happened during the stupid volcano noises!
Neanderthals were the first Europeans. Their population was bolstered by new populations of people from Africa. They were essentially swallowed up by modern man and preserved in later generations.
No, i think its a continuum to europians today, we evolved because we dont live in an ice age no more.
pls lower the volume of your sfx
Imagine being the last neanderthal
Yeap!!
When I heard tha Neardentals got extinct I thought that... They didn't get extinct because we carry their genes. They were our ancestors and we are the common descendants of them and all other kind of human subspecies or races that have been interbreeding non stop at least since half a million years to the present.
6°C less than today is no reason for living in caves, although I understand that only their paintings inside ca es survived the winds and the rains that eroded everything else they built.
I see that nobody questions what magazines write. Nobody thinks for themselves?
Free dentistry, no copays or deductibles, but no anesthetic. You can't have everything.
How much of this is speculation
It's been a long time coming, so there's only a lot of speculation.
all speculation ..
Good video...btw
Thank you.
Missing parts 5 & 6
How far is West Africa from Europe? Is it seven miles
So I guess Neanderthals large nasal passages and wider breathing tubes made it to where they wouldn't have the snoring issues that modern humans deal with. That probably means that it was rare for them to have sleep apnea either.
what a video! i stil wonder... if those Neanderthals drawing on the wall could tell us they were able to simbolic expression as we were, since those painting are quite simple, not complex like animals painted on caves.
Surprisingly, such a picture could be drawn 40000-30000 years ago.
STOP WITH THE SOUND EFFECTS FFS IT RUINS A GOOD VIDEO!!
There were different types of Neanderthals just like how there’s races today
17:17 Culturally superior means genetically superior.
Ok
@@geonomad1 He has a point. If in similar environment one is able to maintain cultural edge over span of millennia, then the edge is most likely actually in genes and culture is just manifestation of it.
The use of the words "married" and "marriage" is anachronistic, and suggests arrangements about which we know nothing. Surely words and phrases like "interbred" and "produced children" are more accurate for circumstances which might have been, for instance, casual or forced.
Computer generated narration video content. What is going on? Why so many AI generated videos
Amazing study....grade A+++
thank you.
The sound effects in combination with the computer voice renders this unwatchable
There is still a lot of speculation & "may haves". Thats not meant to negate any facts.. Many of us are hoping more is revealed in the future.
vwey interesting but the comment is too quick
After listening to the Harvard review on Neanderthals one of the things that got my attention when it was asked were Neanderthals as intelligent as humans. Professor says he imagines not because Neanderthals had a 300,000 year Headstart they developed probably from Homo erectus before humans and we caught up very quickly and surpass them
The intelligence of Neanderthals is thought to be comparable to that of modern humans. However, I believe that modern humans have a better ability to create collective intelligence than them.
The technological advancement of the neanderthals over hundreds of thousands of years didn't move much beyond stone hand axes, clubs and short stout spears. Humans on the other hand were unstoppable with their continuous rapid advancement . I suppose we will never know why
Neanderthals were historically seen as dumb and not able to speak until it was discovered that they make up 2-3% of the DNA of non Africans. You can guess why the shift took place. 😂
The Lapedo Kid, 24.000 BC,Leiria,Portugal.
I wonder if any of the neanderthals were Jewish
I'm hearing this for the first time. Although Neanderthals lived in the Near East, I do not believe that Jews are descendants of Neanderthals.
So this is where white people history begin🤔🤔
Good info spoiled by silly noises
So....they started it?
The amount of oxygen in the air we breath was higher then, too.
"Nice work" you have just devolved modern humans with that statement.
Thank you.
It is hard to believe that a species of people who resembled gorillas with a higher higher power would have lived in peace with modern humans. We of the same species hate ourselves and harm ourselves, the more they certainly saw us as a dish and source of fun ! In our traditions there is a fear of trolls and monsters ,where does this fear come from!
If they weren't periodically in caves, we probably wouldn't know about them.
Sounds are obnoxious in an otherwise very interesting production
Ugh. Computer voice.
Did neanderthals eat trifle
It is known that he liked meat.
He, of course, was also partially seafood and vegetarian.
