The article discusses a report in the May 7, 2010 issue of "Science" titled "A Draft Sequence of the Neanderthal Genome," by evolutionary anthropologists at the Max Planck Institute. Topics include an overview of an evolutionary theory called reproductive isolation and genome sequencing, as part of the Max Planck study, which revealed the common ...

Cognitive neuropsychology, cognitive anthropology, and cognitive archaeology are combined to yield a picture of Neandertal cognition in which expert performance via long-term working memory is the centerpiece of problem solving. This component of Neandertal cognition appears to have been modern in scope.

Neandertal scapular glenoid morphology
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1990AbstractAnalysis of Neandertal and recent human scapular glenoid fossae reveals that the former had long, narrow, and flat glenoid articular surfaces relative to those of modern humans. Comparison of glenoid length, breadth, and curvature to humeral articular dimensions demonstrates that Neandertal glenoid length and curvature scale to proximal and ...

Neandertal radial tuberosity orientation
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1988AbstractExamination of adult and immature Neandertal radii demonstrates that the medial versus anterior orientations of their radial tuberosities fall within recent human ranges of variation, but on the average their radial tuberosities are significantly more medially, as opposed to anteromedially, oriented.

Neandertal supralaryngeal vocal tract
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1993AbstractInterpretations of skeletal anatomy claiming to show that Neandertals could not have had a similar supralayngeal vocal apparatus to that of humans are demonstrated to be flawed. Correction of the errors suggests that the Neandertal vocal apparatus need not have differed from that of recent humans. © 1993 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

The article discusses the extinction of Neandertals which are the closest relatives to humans and the mystery surrounding their disappearance. Scientists have debated where these prehistoric people fit on the family tree of human evolution and what happened to them since the discovery of Neandertal fossils in 1856.

The goal of this essay is to ask whether it is possible to infer complex symbolic behaviour in one of our ancestral populations – the Neandertals. I will use the example of the eagle talons collected by Neandertals and deposited at the Krapina rock shelter some 130, 000 years ago.

A number of techinques have recently been introduced that open up the possibility to perform large-scale genomic analyses from species that became extinct before and during the last Ice Age. The direct large-scale DNA sequencing on the 454 platform from DNA extracted from late Pleistocene cave bears, mammoths and Neandertals has been presented.

Experience shows the problem of the mind cannot be solved by attacking the citadel itself. — the mind is function of body. — we must bring some stable foundation to argue from.Charles Darwin ([1836–44] 1987:564)We must begin our examination with movement. Aristotle (De Anima 405b:33)

The Neandertal nuclear DNA sequenced to date raises the possibility that Neandertals interbred with modern humans (see main text). Now a handful of other studies are finding traces of Neandertal genes in living people. (Read more.)
