Neanderthals are still here to some extent. Humans have always been down bad
and now I believe in it, thank you
it’s also likely that humans had interbread with Neanderthals (hence them being a subspecies) and inherited some of their traits like the higher bone density and bigger brains
im going back to monkey
I first read it as “Netherlands”
Maybe, the Neanderthals are the friends we made a long the way
I want to see the sources on the claim that neanderthals had a religion and jewelry before us.
Alright time to become a monkey again
so the meme template actually applies here
Isn’t that the reason why they’re not here actually? They needed a lot more food because they were bigger and had bigger brains and once the ice age hit they couldn’t get enough.
Neanderthalensis my tongue doing gymnastics just trying to pronounce it
Survival of the fittest. Neanderthals also couldn’t do things as efficiently as Homo Sapiens. We were better hunters and gatherers, and we were better at adapting.
Heidelbergensis also was believed to have larger brains (More cubic centimeters) however it was my understanding they had less organization of lobes/folds thus creating a less efficient brain. Bone density in Neanderthal is attributed to environmental factors such as predators, hunting and gathering, cold climate. I believe the cold is primary factor given **Allen’s Rule**. Its suggested that Neanderthal branch from Erectus in Africa and were much shorter compared.
Another f-u from the evolution.
Actual answer: Neanderthals had bigger brains, but their frontal lobes, particularly the parts associated with social behavior, were much smaller. As a result, Neanderthals typically formed tribes of no more than a dozen, while Sapien tribes were in the hundreds, giving us a massive advantage.
A bigger brain does not equate to a higher intelligence though
Those statements are bullshit right???
….right???
Like, they were a very very close relative to sapiens, and ancestors to quite a few Eurasians due to a bit of hanky panky but….
I’m confused 😕
