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

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.

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.

Postcranial evidence of cold adaptation in European Neandertals
, 1997 The low brachial and crural indices of the European Neandertals have long been considered indicative of cold adaptation. Recent work has documented lower limb/trunk ratios and deeper chests (anterior-posterior diameter) in European Neandertals than among

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 ...
