Taken together, this work almost doubles the number of Neanderthal genomes that have been described. It also gives a tantalising glimpse into Neanderthal social lives.

The results indicated that Neanderthal-derived genetic contributions in the modern samples could be traced to a single ‘pulse’ of gene flow starting roughly 47,000 years ago — more recently ...

Yet despite this closeness, Neanderthals' (Homo neanderthalensis) and Homo sapiens' lineages diverged sometime between 400,000 and 800,000 years ago, and the two species differed in many ways.Here ...

A new genome strand was discovered in 2015 in the Rhône River Valley, France, showing an isolation of Neanderthal DNA, according to a study published in Cell Genomics Volume 4 Issue 9, on ...

Yet these primordial grave-diggers weren’t quite like us, and new research reveals that a young child from the world’s oldest cemetery may have been a Neanderthal-modern human hybrid.

In the case of this hand the Neanderthal who left it would have had to lie on the floor as it was created on a ceiling barely 30cm high. Paul Pettitt and cave art dating team, Author provided.

Scientists at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have analyzed the distribution of the portion of DNA inherited from Neanderthals in the genomes of modern humans over the last 40,000 years.
