Neanderthals (/ n i ˈ æ n d ər ˌ t ɑː l, n eɪ-,-ˌ θ ɑː l / nee-AN-də(r)-TAHL, nay-, - THAHL; [7] Homo neanderthalensis or H. sapiens neanderthalensis) are an extinct group of archaic humans (generally regarded as a distinct species, though some regard it as a subspecies of Homo sapiens) who lived in Eurasia until about 40,000 ...
Svante Pääbo, Nobel Prize laureate and one of the researchers who published the first sequence of the Neanderthal genome.. On 7 May 2010, following the genome sequencing of three Vindija Neanderthals, a draft sequence of the Neanderthal genome was published and revealed that Neanderthals shared more alleles with Eurasian populations (e.g. French, Han Chinese, and Papua New Guinean) than with ...
In 2006, it was posited that Neanderthal Division of labour between the sexes was less developed than Middle paleolithic Homo sapiens. Both male and female Neanderthals participated in the single occupation of hunting big game, such as bison, deer, gazelles, and wild horses. This hypothesis proposes that the Neanderthal's relative lack of ...
This shows Neanderthals and early modern humans “were far more similar than different”, she said. ... Its analysis of two newly sequenced genomes of Homo sapiens from about 45,000 years ago ...
At this time, Homo sapiens migration seem to have replaced them in one of the first anatomically-modern expansions out of Africa. In their turn, starting around 80,000 years ago, Neanderthals seem to have returned and replaced Homo sapiens in Southwest Asia. They inhabited the region until about 55,000 years ago. [1]
The research for the first time pinpoints a short period 48,000 years ago when Homo sapiens interbred with Neanderthals after leaving Africa, after which they went on to expand into the wider world.

Asia, West Asia: Turkey: 316–219: Neanderthal admixture: Genetic evidence for early Homo sapiens admixture to Neanderthals in West Asia, discovered in 2017. [3] Asia, Southeast Asia: India: 385–250: South India: Quartzite tools excavated at Attirampakkam were dated back to 250,000-385,000 years old. [4] Africa, Horn of Africa: Ethiopia: 200 ...
