I bet that Baw would knock a cavewoman in the head then drag her back to the cave by her hair for fun time.

Scientists reveal the face of a Neanderthal who lived 75,000 years ago

A 40-something woman was buried in a cave 75,000 years ago, laid to rest in a gully hollowed out to accommodate her body. Her left hand was curled under her head, and a rock behind her head may have been placed as a cushion.


Im assuming they found the full body skeleton so they can "assume" "her" gender? And now some distant relative/alphabet group will sue for them misgendering her.

I wonder how tall she was. Being buried like that probably points to her being an important elder as living 40 yrs back then must be like 100+ today.

Considering this: Scientists studying her remains have painstakingly pieced together her skull from 200 bone fragments, a process that took nine months

I would like to know how they can even assume Her left hand was curled under her head, and a rock behind her head may have been placed as a cushion.

Things like this a usually many small pieces of bones that require tons of fill in for the missing pieces and are at best honest guesses; however, they are sold as indisputable scientific facts.

My thoughts exactly. Without all the shite we put in our bodies, I believe 40yrs old 40,000 years ago would look like a modern day 20yr old.

You do realize 100 years ago 40 year olds looked like 60 year olds today? I don't disagree that natural especially for food and minerals is the preferred route and has health benefits, but we have made extreme advancements that make life easier which in turn prolongs some of our bodies aging compared to centuries, much less 10+ millennia ago.
