I saw a pop sci article yesterday waxing poetic about neanderthal language.

I want to make it clear: If you read someone talking about how neanderthal brain structure suggests they were incapable of metaphor, stop reading.

It's garbage. We can't know that.

And we are constantly surprised pikachu even with hominins with smaller brains than ours - neanderthals had bigger brains than we do.

ScienceAlert · The Oldest Known Burial Site in The World Wasn't Created by Our SpeciesPaleontologists in South Africa said they have found the oldest known burial site in the world, containing remains of a small-brained distant relative of humans previously thought incapable of complex behavior.

Interspecies competition led to even more forms of ancient human – defying evolutionary trends in vertebrates

Competition between species played a major role in the rise and fall of #hominins – and produced a “bizarre” evolutionary pattern for the #Homo lineage – according to a new University of Cambridge study that revises the start and end dates for many of our early ancestors.

"Scientists have discovered a trove of nearly 600 #obsidian hand-axes that were crafted more than 1.2 million years ago in #Ethiopia by an unknown group of #hominins, the family consisting of modern humans and our many extinct relatives".

"The new study opens a tantalizing window into the mysterious hominin community that lived in this river ecosystem 1.2 million years ago, and learned to take advantage of some of the most challenging resources in its environment."

"Archaeologists Discover 1.2 Million-Year-Old 'Workshop'"

"Scientists have discovered a trove of nearly 600 obsidian hand-axes that were crafted more than 1.2 million years ago in Ethiopia by an unknown group of hominins, the family consisting of modern humans and our many extinct relatives, reports a new study.

The discovery pushes the timeline of obsidian tool use back by an astonishing 500,000 years, and reveals that the hominins who lived in this part of Ethiopia, known as Melka Kunture, must have been considerably skilled crafters in order to work with this capricious material."

Exciting new research on the origins of #bipedalism in early #hominins around 7,000,000 yrs ago: Moving on 2 legs while foraging in treetops in an otherwise open habitat was essential to the devt'ment of bipedalism among ancestors of humans - contradicting the idea that it arose as an adaptation to spending more time on the ground.
