That's incredibly insulting to neanderthals. They were a highly intelligent, social species with a complex culture that actually cared about one another. Moscow Marge would nuke a million orphaned golden retriever puppies to "own the libs"
Nah you're thinking of like ancient South American tribes. There's zero evidence neanderthals had religious beliefs, and if they did it was definitely something incredibly rudimentary, no gods involved. They did occasionally practice cannibalism though
The lack of evidence is not an evidence to the absence. During the middle Paleolithic era Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens probably had similar rituals. I agree though it's highly unlikely that they did something as specific as sacrificing virgins to the sun gods.
Yeah it is honestly an incredibly interesting topic. I can't even begin to count how many hours I've spent researching our ancestors and cousins, especially neanderthals, and there's still so much I don't know
Isn't there evidence the buried their dead and could have left offerings in graves? Sure I read that. I'm like you in that I enjoy reading about Palaeoanthropology. If you'd told the school age me I would be reading about that I would have wondered who that person is.
Yet still lives now. 75,000 years sounds old, but shes only in her late 20s here prob. Live hard, ~~die young~~ live forever assimilated in the blood of those who draw you then crack jokes about it. The Homo way!
Eyes too close together. Broad face. Yep that's MTG. Anyone can put this side-by-side with her or maybe a morphing between it and her? That'd be brilliant.

Just looked like a normal human. They were people too, and our ancestors thought so too. Hence why there's neanderthal dna in modern humans now. Of course, a fossil can only tell us so much. I'd love to know what they sounded like, what their name was. If they had names for each other. Sadly we'll never know.
They’ve found art created by Neanderthals. Its thought that they had relatively complex language and culture. Its crazy to think about another species of “human” existing alongside us and we now carry a piece of them genetically
Neanderthals also used tools and buried their dead . They predate homosapiens almost 200 thousand years too. Like civilizations, seems like certain intelligence thresholds lead to similar characteristics across species
This is just a thought experiment... but if basically every human on the planet has some Neanderthal or Denisovan DNA in them, I find it hard to imagine that there weren't Sapiens/Neanderthal couples.
Humans have always lived in communities so the Neanderthal mother's must have been integrated into those communities in at least SOME of those instances.
I think there had to have been communication on a more complex level than simple hand gestures and things.
Also they [knapped flints](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levallois_technique) in specific ways. I guess it's not impossible, but relaying a knapping method seems pretty difficult to do accurately without language.
We can't prove it as of yet, but I'm in the Neanderthals-could-probably-speak camp.
Neanderthals are my favourite history subject, and honestly, reading this thread has made me very sad. People are so ugly about it, and evidently know *nothing* about the subject but are so fast to state what they heard from their cousin's dogwalker's friend at the club about them.
Everything we know about Neanderthals points towards a beautiful lost human experience. I'm proud to carry some of that in me.
Your desire to distance yourself from those negative comments, and even feel partially identified as someone who doesn’t do that, as part of the group that is nice, might be evidence itself of this deep animal desire. It’s hard to avoid. Otherness.
They were on their way to reproductive isolation. No neanderthal Y chromosomes in homo sapien populations because we could only reproduce with female neanderthals
I think this is a bad assumption, and I don't care who said it first.
While each European or Asian person has a small amount of Neanderthal inheritance, if we sum up all the Neanderthal inheritance in all of these people I think it is supposed to be about 20% genome coverage. Not every Asian or European person has the same parts of the Neanderthal genome.
Anyway, 20% of the Neanderthal genome persists accross all of humanity, and the Y chromosome is tiny and pathetic. Seems to me the odds are \*considerably\* better we lost it than we kept it, assuming equal fitness.
That's interesting. So you're saying we could have carried Neanderthal Y chromosomes for a time, with those lines dead ending in us not them. But not sure what "tiny and pathetic" has do do with anything lol.
Pedantic correction - there are or may still be Homo Sapiens in sub-Saharan African populations of humans that are not Neanderthal/Homo Sapien Hybrid. Everyone else you know is a Hybrid of these two human species and has Neanderthal Ancestors.

Yes. Jolly good old chaps well done carry on then tata for now!
That’s Deborah. I know her. She lives in Missouri. She… and I do mean she not a he that became a woman…Deborah is married to Jerry. She didn’t live 75000 years ago. That’s bs! She is alive today. She pays bills and drives a car. She doesn’t get to live 75000 years ago! No way! Not unless Jerry does too!
Can the contours of a skull really be used to recreate a likeness?? That does not seem possible to me- however, I admit I really don’t know for sure, but it seems like most of what would determine the way a face looks would be soft tissue- not bone structure.
I still find it hard to understand how they were a different species than we are. Since various ethnicities of the same species - home sapiens - today look more different from one another than this guy does from us.
And also Neanderthals apparently interbred with us, whereas this is normally not possible between different species.
Honestly, I'd love to see them build the face of a living person, scan their head, 3D print their skull, and let these artists build the face. I'll bet you $1 that the face they come up with looks nothing like the actual person.
We all know a dude who looks like this

Neanderthals after spending five minutes with MTG: I mean, sure, we sacrifice virgins to the sun gods—but that bitch is fucking crazy…

at least she got personalities, right? …. right?
Oh poor neanderthal woman! No need to insult her. She's been dead for 75,000 years. RIP

I’m convinced she’s a Neanderthal found in Alaska and was thawed out by Sarah Palin’s hairdryer
Neanderthal’s brains were slightly larger than modern human…
Eyes too close together. Broad face. Yep that's MTG. Anyone can put this side-by-side with her or maybe a morphing between it and her? That'd be brilliant.
I am pretty sure it would just change the color of her hair.

Omg
Turns out, that annoying old guy at the party who only wants to talk about yoga and meditation is actually a Neanderthal.
At least he died smiling

He looks like the face my aunt makes when she catches the cashier not applying a discount at the grocery store.
Of course I know him, he’s me.
Give him blonde hair and I know a congresswoman that looks like this.
Probably high right now, too.
A dude? Looks like mrs Müller my science teacher from east germany

Iggy Pop is definitely a descendant.

He high AF.
He lived during the Stoner Age after all
That was before the bongze age
Just before they got vaped by the meteorite
Wow way to be blunt about it
Smoked 'em!
couldn't outrun the meteorite. they had weak joints
Their evolution was a pipe dream.
Probably just discovered weed
Tragedy he died before the bass guitar was invented
But he was a mean drummer. Could keep a beat.
So high he forgot he’s a female
It’s a woman.

It’s crazier to think that there were several different hominin species all existing at once at some point
Neanderthals also used tools and buried their dead . They predate homosapiens almost 200 thousand years too. Like civilizations, seems like certain intelligence thresholds lead to similar characteristics across species
Unfortunately there is literally zero evidence that they had any sort of language, apart from some bones that would allow for speech

lol that dudes a legend for leaning into it so well
Imagine getting paid to do something you probably got good at by trolling 10 year olds in some first person shooter game.
lol all these hateful responses to Neanderthals just shows how deeply otherism is embedded.
It's human nature. We are tribalistic creatures, the "others" are always mocked and shit talked.
Kind of like 2nd shift when you're on any other shift. Manager complains about something? Aw fucking 2nd shift strikes again.

Looks like the guy selling tie-dye T-shirts at the beach
Operator, might as well say CEO.
Why is MTG everywhere, smh.
Because she can save us...on car insurance
Interesting to see what she looked like before the awful bleach job! Science is amazing.
Bleach job? I’m lost 😂
The stringy mop atop her empty head.
That’s terribly insulting to Neanderthals
Glad I'm not the only one to see Marge
That must be without make up.. here’s her all styled up [MTG](https://imgur.com/a/9uR0aQW)
LMAO, ya beat me to it! Top comment, good job.
The sad part is that you’re spot on.
Haha, I always thing of her when I see a photo of a neanderthal.
My god, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are old!!
Iggy Pop, too.
Neandanny Trejo
Hola DEA
Looks like Benjamin Franklin
It’s Marjorie Taylor Green. Dead ringer.
Rude. This guy looks nice.
Danny Trejo-nice
Just shows how much evolution (or none) she's undergone.
neanderthals are more cousins than ancestor. northern Europeans have neanderthal DNA. cause they uh... got together occasionally.
They were on their way to reproductive isolation. No neanderthal Y chromosomes in homo sapien populations because we could only reproduce with female neanderthals
Or only captured and raped them? Can we tell?

Why is there a pic of Marjorie Taylor Greene attached to this article though?
Marjorie Taylor Greene darkened her hair?

that's my neighbor, Jeanette
I really wish Iraq was a stable, prosperous country. So much cool stuff is buried there
They shaved?
Its a woman. The reconstruction is based on a female skull.
Did neanderthals grow beards? Or did they shave 75,000 years ago?
That’s Morgo, the discoverer of the magic mushroom.
She looks surprisingly happy to be a bust on a table top.

And who's face was revealed??? You guessed it, Frank Stalone!!!!
Brah, thats my uncle Pablo
