  2. Neanderthal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal

    Archaeological evidence suggests that there was a tenfold increase in the modern human population in Western Europe during the period of the Neanderthal/modern human transition, [181] and Neanderthals may have been at a demographic disadvantage due to a lower fertility rate, a higher infant mortality rate, or a combination of the two. [182]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal_extinction

    The argument has been developed by Golovanova et al. [52] [53] The hypothesis posits that although Neanderthals had encountered several Interglacials during 250,000 years in Europe, [54] inability to adapt their hunting methods caused their extinction facing H. sapiens competition when Europe changed into a sparsely vegetated steppe and semi ...

  5. Goyet Caves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goyet_Caves

    The site is a significant locality of regional Neanderthal and European early modern human occupation, as thousands of fossils and artifacts were discovered that are all attributed to a long and contiguous stratigraphic sequence from 120,000 years ago, the Middle Paleolithic to less than 5,000 years ago, the late Neolithic. A robust sequence of ...

    At around 30-fold coverage, Vindija 33.19 is the second high coverage Neanderthal genome to be sequenced, after the Altai Neanderthal from Denisova Cave. [6] In 2018, researchers sequenced a low coverage genome from an undiagnosed bone fragment, Vindija 87 (directly dated to around 47,000 BP) and concluded that the fragment most likely came ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hominid_dispersals_in_Europe

    While lacking the robustness attributed to west European Neanderthal morphology, other populations did inhabit parts of eastern Europe and western Asia. [22] Between 45,000–35,000 years ago, modern humans (Homo sapiens) replaced all Neanderthal populations in Europe anatomically and genetically. [23]
