If you want to navigate between the Scylla and Charybdis of Neanderthal controversies, you’ll find no better guide.” ―Brian Fagan, author of Cro-Magnon In recent years, the common perception of the Neanderthal has been transformed thanks to new discoveries and paradigm-shattering scientific innovations. It turns out that the Neanderthals’ behavior was surprisingly they buried the dead, cared for the sick, hunted large animals in their prime, harvested seafood, and spoke.
