[37] Abri means "rock shelter" in French, [citation needed] cro means "hole" in Occitan, [38] and Magnon was the landowner.

They were the first early modern humans (Homo sapiens) to settle in Europe, migrating from Western Asia, continuously occupying the continent possibly from as early as 56,800 years ago. They interacted and interbred with the indigenous Neanderthals ( H. neanderthalensis ) of Europe and Western Asia, who went extinct 40,000 to 35,000 years ago.
All these finds were found to group with Cro-Magnons rather than with Neanderthals, and the old term "Cro-Magnon" in some 1970s literature was extended to include what would today be called anatomically modern humans in general. [14] In this understanding of the term "Cro-Magnon", the short and stocky Chancelade man did not stand out.

He is a somewhat scrawny and yet still rather muscular young Cro-Magnon boy with long, shaggy, red hair and wears a yellow armband on one arm. Most of the Neanderthals that he lives with are jealous of his intelligence.
By the 1970s, new finds from Jebel Qafzeh in Israel, Combe-Capelle in Southern France, Minatogawa in Japan, the Kabwe skull from Zambia and several Paleo-Indians had considerably broadened the knowledge of early human populations. [18] The old term "Cro-Magnon" was replaced with "anatomically modern human" to encompass the expanding population ...
