Neanderthals and Modern Humans

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the extinction of the Neanderthals, this work presents a compelling argument that their demise was primarily due to their inability to adapt to rapid ecological changes rather than competition with modern humans. Clive Finlayson challenges traditional narratives surrounding their extinction, offering new insights into the environmental factors that played a crucial role during the Pleistocene period. This perspective reshapes our understanding of Neanderthal survival and their interactions with the changing world around them.
