Description
The Neanderthals A new perspective on our ancient relatives. Half a million years ago, in Ice Age Europe, people emerged who managed to cope with the challenging climate - Neanderthal Man. They formed an organized society, hunted large game, and could make fire. This book provides a comprehensive look at their history, living conditions, and culture. New discoveries suggest that the image of the Neanderthals as primitive humans needs revision. They were able to pass on knowledge, care for the old and handicapped, bury their dead, and place gifts on graves. Yet, they became extinct despite their cultural abilities. This richly illustrated book offers a competent look at the Neanderthal way of life. With its accessible approach, this book is ideal for anyone interested in history, science, or anthropology.
