Neanderthals had a flat, sloping cranium, where as human have a round cranium. They had a larger and wider rib cage than humans as well as larger elbow joints.

What evidence suggests Neanderthals were like present day humans?

Hi


Did neanderthals look more like an ape human or both?

They looked like humans.


What evidence suggests Neanderthals were like present-day humans?

Evidence such as their use of tools, burial rituals, art, and genetic overlap with modern humans suggests that Neanderthals had some cognitive abilities and behaviors similar to modern humans. Additionally, studies have shown that Neanderthals had complex social structures and lived in family groups, much like present-day humans.


Is neanderthals a civilization?

Neanderthals were not a civilization in the traditional sense. They were a species of archaic humans who lived in Europe and parts of Asia around 400,000 to 40,000 years ago. Neanderthals had their own unique culture and tools but did not develop a complex civilization like modern humans.

What could prove that humans evolved from Neanderthals?

I doubt that any evidence, experiment, or research could prove that humans evolved from Neanderthals. Neanderthals and humans both evolved from Heidelberg Men (Homo heidelbergensis). Genetic evidence, cloning, and geometric reconstruction can effectively establish that humans (Homo sapiens) and Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) evolved from Homo heidelbergensis, but it is difficult to irrevocably prove something like that, as it cannot be, as far as we know, recreated in a laboratory.


Could Neanderthals interbreed with humans?

Yes, Neanderthals and humans were able to interbreed, as evidenced by genetic studies showing that modern humans of non-African descent have Neanderthal DNA in their genomes.
