La Brújula Verde · Nuevas dataciones confirman que el niño de Lapedo, híbrido de humano moderno y neandertal, vivió miles de años después de que estos se extinguieranUn equipo internacional de investigadores ha logrado fechar directamente los restos del llamado Niño de Lapedo, un esqueleto infantil hallado en 1998 en el abrigo rocoso de Lagar Velho, en la región de Leiria, Portugal, con características híbridas de neandertales y humanos modernos.

How Neandertal DNA May Affect the Way We Think
DNA inherited from Neandertals may influence modern human cognition

"Our species probably inherited some of these unfavorable genetic variants when our ancestors interbred with Neandertals tens of millennia ago. Is it possible that some of the harmful Neandertal-derived variants that have stuck around in our genomes now influence not only the sizes and shapes of some of our brain structures but also our propensity for neurodevelopmental and psychiatric conditions?"

Duela 40-000-60.000 urteen artean, sapiensek Afrika utzi eta Europan hedatu ziren. Hedatzean, neandertalekin topo egin zuten, eta bi giza taldeek elkarren artean hibridatu ziren. Hori guztia jakina bazen ere, zientzialariek ez zekiten ondo zein izan zen hibridazioen dinamika eta zer bilakaera izan duen neandertalengandik jasotako herentzia genetikoak. Hori azaldu dute orain argitaratu diren bi artikuluk.

Giant stone artefacts found on rare #IceAge site in Kent

"The excavation site is thought to date to a period in the early #prehistory of Britain when #Neanderthal people and their cultures were beginning to emerge and may even have shared the landscape with other early human species."

How many antibiotics and useful chemical products have been lost to the eons of time? Bacteria are the fundamental base of life and have been from the beginning, what sort of protein products did they make in ages past?

An international team has now successfully reconstructed some of these products called paleofurans from the Paleolithic era in the tooth decay bacteria of Neandertals.
