The first Neanderthal remains from an open-air Middle Palaeolithic site in the Levant [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 The late Middle Palaeolithic (MP) settlement patterns in the Levant included the repeated use of caves and open landscape sites. The fossil record shows that two types of hominins occupied the region during this period—Neandertals and Homo sapiens. Until

Hand to mouth in a neandertal: right-handedness in Regourdou 1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 We describe and analyze a Neandertal postcranial skeleton and dentition, which together show unambiguous signs of right-handedness. Asymmetries between the left and right upper arm in Regourdou 1 were identified nearly 20 years ago, then confirmed by ...

Reduced purine biosynthesis in humans after their divergence from Neandertals
eLife, 2021 We analyze the metabolomes of humans, chimpanzees, and macaques in muscle, kidney and three different regions of the brain. Although several compounds in amino acid metabolism occur at either higher or lower concentrations in humans than in the other ...

Neandertal clavicle length [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Neandertal clavicle length, relative to that of modern humans, has long been considered distinctive. It has been invoked with respect to their ecogeographic body proportions, thoracic shape, scapular posture and biomechanics, temporal labyrinthine shape, and ancient DNA, as well as their trait polarities and ...

Science, 1997 The recent discussion regarding Neandertal molecular studies (P. Kahn and A. Gibbons, Research News, 11 July, p. 176) suggests that other Neandertal and Cro- Magnon specimens should be examined for modern human mitochondrial haplotypes to further test multiregionalism (1). A Neandertal sequence from another site would also corroborate the initial study

Dental Morphological Affinities Among Late-Pleistocene and Recent Humans
Dental Anthropology, 2000 The study uses analyses of Mean Measure of Divergence (MMD) to assess the affinities of ten populations representing early anatomically modern humans, Upper Paleolithic Europeans, recent modern humans, and Neandertals.
