Neandertal Genetics

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

The first Neanderthal remains from an open-air Middle Palaeolithic site in the Levant

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

MONOGRÀFIC Breu història de la paleogenòmica: De com una disciplina jove ha revolucionat l'estudi del passat

Mètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review, 2018
En pocs anys, el camp del DNA antic ha passat de ser una disciplina anecdòtica i artesanal a convertir-se en un dels camps científics més dinàmics, que està generant dades genòmiques massives de centenars d’individus del passat.

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 ...

The intrusive nature of the Châtelperronian in the Iberian Peninsula.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Multiple factors have been proposed to explain the disappearance of Neandertals between ca. 50 and 40 kyr BP. Central to these discussions has been the identification of new techno-cultural complexes that overlap with the period of Neandertal demise in ...

Comparison of maxillary first molar occlusal outlines of Neandertals from the Meuse River Basin of Belgium using elliptical Fourier analysis

Anthropological Review, 2017
Several Neandertals derive from the karstic caves of the Meuse river tributaries of Belgium, including Engis 2, Scladina 4A-4 and Spy 1. These may form a group that is distinct in maxillary first molar occlusal outlines compared to La Quina 5 from ...

Neandertal versus Modern Human Dietary Responses to Climatic Fluctuations. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The Neandertal lineage developed successfully throughout western Eurasia and effectively survived the harsh and severely changing environments of the alternating glacial/interglacial cycles from the middle of the Pleistocene until Marine Isotope Stage 3.

A Draft Sequence of the Neandertal Genome [PDF]

Science, 2010
Neandertals, the closest evolutionary relatives of present-day humans, lived in large parts of Europe and western Asia before disappearing 30,000 years ago. We present a draft sequence of the Neandertal genome composed of more than 4 billion nucleotides from three individuals.

Neandertal demise: an archaeological analysis of the modern human superiority complex.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Neandertals are the best-studied of all extinct hominins, with a rich fossil record sampling hundreds of individuals, roughly dating from between 350,000 and 40,000 years ago. Their distinct fossil remains have been retrieved from Portugal in the west to

No evidence of Neandertal mtDNA contribution to early modern humans.

PLoS Biology, 2004
The retrieval of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences from four Neandertal fossils from Germany, Russia, and Croatia has demonstrated that these individuals carried closely related mtDNAs that are not found among current humans.
