Leanderthal Lady is the skeletal remains of a prehistoric woman discovered in January 1983 [1] near the city of Leander, Texas. The remains were alternatively labeled "Leanne." [2] Both names were inspired by the proximity of the site to the town of Leander, a suburb of Austin. Contrary to her name, the Leanderthal Lady lived during the end of ...
Neanderthals were a species of early human that evolved from the same common ancestor as Homo sapiens — modern humans — between 700,000 and 300,000 years ago, according to the Smithsonian. We ...
A Neanderthal was buried 75,000 years ago, and experts painstakingly pieced together what she looked like. The striking recreation is featured in a new Netflix documentary, “Secrets of the ...

[68] [69] In 2015, the 40,000-year-old modern human Oase 1 was found to have had 6–9% (point estimate 7.3%) Neanderthal DNA, indicating a Neanderthal ancestor up to four to six generations earlier, but this hybrid Romanian population does not appear to have made a substantial contribution to the genomes of later Europeans.
About 5,600 years ago, a 20-year-old woman was buried with a tiny baby resting on her chest, a sad clue that she likely died in childbirth during the Neolithic. This woman and six other ancient ...
One of the individuals, the Altai Neanderthal, is a Neanderthal woman. [21] Before its DNA was sequenced, the Altai Neanderthal had been given the provisional name of Denisova 5 . [ 30 ] In 2018, Denisova 11 was identified as a Neanderthal/Denisova hybrid, based on whole genome sequencing and comparisons.
Neanderthal women, who lived in the Siberian mountains around 54,000 years ago, left their homes to join their partners in other communities while the men stayed local, research suggests.
