Long before Homo sapiens populated the earth, the Neanderthals lived in Eurasia.

Now, paleoanthropologists in England and France are using new archeological methods to shed light on some previously unexplained Neanderthal mysteries.

Many years before in history, before homo sapiens lived on this planet, the neanderthals populated the earth. Due to the advancement in Paleoanthropology, we more of less understand the ways of our ancient ancestors.

When asked to picture a Neanderthal, most of us immediately think of a dumb Fred Flintstone type, carrying a club, wearing fur, and finding the nearest woman to knock over the head and drag back to their cave.

Well, that’s wrong.

Neanderthals were a social and capable species, who were far more intelligent than we think.
