This innovative approach combines climate data, archaeological evidence, and population dynamics to simulate how Neanderthals moved across the landscape. The model reveals that by the time ...

Neanderthal DNA is 99.7% identical to our own, and researchers claim that some humans might be carrying as much as 2% of the ...

Researchers at the University of Cologne use simulations to investigate the likelihood of interactions between Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans on the Iberian Peninsula / publication in ...

Over a century ago, anthropologist Raymond Dart chipped an ancient skull out of some rock from an ancient quarry — and revealed the face of an ancient human relative.

A newly reconstructed fossil face from Ethiopia reveals surprising complexity in early human evolution. By digitally fitting together teeth and fossilized bone fragments, researchers reconstructed a ...

If someone told you it rained fish once upon a time, would you believe them? You'd be forgiven if you said "no." But get this: not only has it rained fish, it's rained many different other animals, in ...

Some people in Ukraine weathered the harshest moments of the last ice age by creating shelters made partly of mammoth bones and tusks.
