    Svante Pääbo, Nobel Prize laureate and one of the researchers who published the first sequence of the Neanderthal genome.. On 7 May 2010, following the genome sequencing of three Vindija Neanderthals, a draft sequence of the Neanderthal genome was published and revealed that Neanderthals shared more alleles with Eurasian populations (e.g. French, Han Chinese, and Papua New Guinean) than with ...

    The Neanderthal DNA found in modern human genomes has long raised questions about ancient interbreeding. New studies offer a timeline of when that occurred and when ancient humans left Africa.

  6. Behavioral modernity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavioral_modernity

    Although few and controversial, circumstantial evidence of Neanderthal ritual burials has been uncovered. [28] There are two options to describe this symbolic behavior among Neanderthals: they copied cultural traits from arriving modern humans or they had their own cultural traditions comparative with behavioral modernity.

    Most humans alive today can trace a very small percentage of their DNA to Neanderthals. However, Neanderthal DNA is slightly more abundant in the genomes of certain populations.

  8. Shanidar Cave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanidar_Cave

    Assuming that Neanderthals did perform surgery on Shanidar 1, his recovery demonstrates that their methods were successful in sustaining life. The prolonged survival of an individual with significant disabilities has also provided the basis for conjecture about Neanderthal social behavior.

  9. Neanderthal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal

    The largest Neanderthal brain, Amud 1, was calculated to be 1,736 cm 3 (105.9 cu in), one of the largest ever recorded in hominids. [78] Both Neanderthal and human infants measure about 400 cm 3 (24 cu in). [213] When viewed from the rear, the Neanderthal braincase has lower, wider, rounder appearance than in anatomically modern humans.
