Neanderthals. Undament competitors Homo sapiens. Mors M., Papagianni D.

Do you still think that Neanderthals were underdeveloped monkeys? Or do you think that their brain was more than that of a modern person? All these are myths, mercilessly debunking the authors of the book. In the text you will find a complete history of discoveries related to the most mysterious relative of a modern person, and also learn the answers to many questions that have tormented scientists for a long time. How and when did the Neanderthals appear? Were they the only type of people who inhabited Europe before the arrival of Homo sapiens? Why did the Neanderthals not withstand competition with modern people and died out?

The authors examine each aspect in detail and give the most plausible hypotheses for each of them.
