This innovative approach combines climate data, archaeological evidence, and population dynamics to simulate how Neanderthals moved across the landscape. The model reveals that by the time ...

Using a specially developed simulation model, researchers at the University of Cologne have traced and analyzed the dynamics ...

Modern human faces are surprisingly delicate compared with the jutting jaws and broad noses of our closest extinct cousins. The contrast is not just cosmetic, it reflects deep differences in growth, ...

For years, researchers analyzing traumatic injuries found on Neanderthal fossils believed they had lived dangerous, violent lives. But a new study reveals that early modern humans and Neanderthals ...

Researchers at the University of Cologne use simulations to investigate the likelihood of interactions between Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans on the Iberian Peninsula / publication in ...

In the last decade, archaeologists have learned to read the genetic traces that ancient humans and Neanderthals left not only ...

Early human ancestors called the LRJ Group lived in Europe for 80 generations, intermingling with Neanderthals, before ...

A gene called ADSL, which helps synthesize DNA, differs between modern humans and our extinct human relatives. The findings could shed light on why Neanderthals vanished. When you purchase through ...

Every face carries a story, shaped long before birth by a quiet choreography of genes switching on and off at just the right moment. A new study suggests that part of that story reaches far back into ...

Using a specially developed simulation model, researchers at the University of Cologne have traced and analysed the dynamics of possible encounters ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Microscopic examinations of the red dot revealed the whorls of the Neanderthal fingerprint that ...
