Homo neanderthalensis
When and where they existed
●Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) is an
extinct species of the Homo genus that inhabited
Europe and parts of western Asia from 230,000
years ago until 28,000 years ago.
●During their existence, it is believed that they live
simultaneously in the same European territories
with the Man of Cro-Magnon (the first modern
humans in Europe) for 5,000 years.
●This coexistence has been demonstrated by
fossils found in the caves of Châtelperron and the
analysis of DNA found in caves of Asturias (El
Sidrón).
Social Behavior
●They lived in organized groups of about
thirty members, in caves.
●They used fire and buried dead.
Characteristics of Homo
Neanderthalensis
●Robust skeleton
●Wide pelvis
●Short limbs
●Barrel chest
●Beetle-browed
●Low and sloping forehead
●Prominent face
●Chinless jaw
●Large cranial capacity (1550 cm ³)
Language
There is a lot of controversy about how the
Neanderthals communicated:
●Some believe that they had a language similar to
ours that included compositional structure and
grammatical rules.
●Others argue that they had a less developed
language that was closer to the communication
system of Apes. According to the archaeologist
Steven Mithen, Neanderthals had a
communication system that was called "Hmmmm"
Neanderthals tools
●Like earlier hominids, Neanderthals made
and used tools. However, the tools produced
by the Neanderthals were much more
advanced than those used by their
predecessors.
●Neanderthals learned
to combine different
types of stone into a
single tool, and they
discovered how to use
a wide variety of soft
and hard stones for
specialized tasks.
