Happened upon this old drawing I did of a Neanderthal man when I was 17 or 18 during the height of my caveman obsession. Probably drew it during class when I was supposed to be paying attention. It's pretty amateurish, but it was good to see his face again. I don't know why I drew him so angry looking, he would have looked better with a big toothy grin.

A group of UK scientists reexamined a group of late stage Neanderthal teeth from the early 1900s with modern techniques such as CT scanning. They discovered a mix of new characteristics indicative of both modern Homo sapiens and Neanderthal, more evidence supporting a gradual absorption of Neanderthals into emerging modern human populations.

What about a Neanderthal embryo fossil cast mineralized common opal? Would that be rare? I found this in central oregon and I know nothing about it. I thought it was a thunderegg until I started pealing it back and had a laugh with my girlfriend about how it looked like a skull inside. I do suffer from extremely vivid imagination that most people call paradolia. This is not that. After a bit more liberation I now can see a skull, spine a tail (I think ) and a tiny little foot that almost winds up in its mouth. Did some research of features and came up with the above description. I think its casted in common opal I'm not positive I'm still cleaning it. Thank you for any help and your time.

Genetic evidence points to a interbreeding event between the common ancestors of Neanderthals and Denisovians and a newly recognised "super archaic" human group that diverged 2 million years ago. The breeding event seems to have happened 700,000 years ago. Our family tree looking more like a braided vine https://m.phys.org/news/2020-02-earliest-interbreeding-event-ancient-human.html

Neanderthals were not hunched over and had more similar posture to modern humans than we thought. https://www.sciencealert.com/a-major-difference-between-neanderthals-and-humans-has-been-quashed/amp
