The hyoid bone and larynx in a modern human. It is not known whether Neanderthals were anatomically capable of speech and whether they spoke. [9] The only bone in the vocal tract is the hyoid, but it is so fragile that no Neanderthal hyoid was found until 1983, when excavators discovered a well-preserved one on Neanderthal Kebara 2, Israel.
Inter-stratification of Neanderthal and modern human remains has been suggested, [6] but is disputed. [7] Stone tools that have been proposed to be linked to Neanderthals have been found at Byzovya (ru:Бызовая) in the polar Urals, and dated to 31,000 to 34,000 years ago, [8] but is also disputed. [9]

La Ferrassie 1 (LF1) is a male Neanderthal skeleton estimated to be 58–50,000 years old. [1] It was discovered at the La Ferrassie site in France by Louis Capitan and Denis Peyrony in 1909. The skull is the most complete Neanderthal skull ever found. [ 2 ]
Neanderthal remains have been found nearby at Kebara Cave that date to 61,000–48,000 years ago, [6] but it has been hypothesised that the Skhul/Qafzeh hominids had died out by 80,000 years ago because of drying and cooling conditions, favouring a return of a Neanderthal population [7] suggesting that the two types of hominids never made ...
