The Geography of Neandertals and Modern Humans in Europe and the Greater Mediterranean (Peabody Museum ...
Peabody Museum Press
, 2001
During the Middle Paleolithic, various populations ancestral to modern Hone sapiens inhabited Africa, while Europe was homeland to the Neandertals. Recent archaeological investigations have provided data showing that the abrupt transition from the Middle to the Upper Neolithic, during which these populations met and interacted, was a fast-moving period of change for both groups. In this volume, the expansion of modern humans and their impact on ...

Paleontology and Politics
This is a fascinating and very well-written account of the discovery of the first Neandertal skeletons, and the shock waves they caused (and are still causing) throughout science. The Victorian mania for collecting, cataloging and naming natural specimens led to the formulation of the Great Tree of Life, or Chain of Being, arranged from the lowliest organisms in an orderly progression up to ...
Neandertals: A Prehistoric Puzzle (Discovery!)

Twenty-First Century Books (CT)
, 2007
When the first Neandertal skeleton was discovered nearly 150 years ago, scientists presented the race as barely developed brutes. But recent findings indicate that Neandertals made complex tools, organized group hunts, cared for their sick and injured, and buried their dead. How advanced were they? How and why did they disappear? Did they live side-by-side with modern humans?

These collected papers gather the most up-to-date archaeological discoveries of Western Asia - a region that is often overshadowed by African or European findings - but the only region in the world where both Neandertal and early modern human fossils have been found.

Während der evolutionäre Vorteil der sprachlichen Kommunikation als Möglichkeit der Informationsübermittlung offensichtlich ist, wird ...
