Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons were early human ancestors who lived alongside modern humans but eventually went extinct. Neanderthals had a distinctive physical appearance with a robust body and large brow ridges, while Cro-Magnons were anatomically similar to modern humans. Both groups had their own unique tool-making techniques and cultural practices, but Cro-Magnons were more advanced in their art and symbolic behavior.
Either because of climate change, or competition from Cro-Magnon man (modern humans).

One theory is that Cro-Magnons outcompeted Neanderthals for resources due to their more advanced tools, social structures, and cognitive abilities. Another theory suggests that interbreeding between Cro-Magnons and Neanderthals may have occurred, leading to the assimilation of Neanderthal genes into the Cro-Magnon population. Additionally, environmental factors such as climate change and habitat loss may have also played a role in the replacement of Neanderthals by Cro-Magnons.
There is no single agreed-upon reason for the extinction of Neanderthals. Some possible contributing factors include competition with modern humans for resources, changes in climate, and possible interbreeding with modern humans leading to assimilation of Neanderthal genes into the modern human population.
Well, let's think about this shall we? Neanderthals had brains that were around five percent bigger than ours. It does not necessarily mean they were smarter than us. But the idea that they were stupid is as old-fashioned and primitive as the Neanderthal stereotype comes across. They were far from stupid. For one thing, they could speak. Scientists had found a hyoid bone comparable to ours and this helped Neanderthals to produce a wide range of sounds-in other words, speech. So Neanderthals must have had some form of language. Language and the ability to communicate is one sign of intelligence. They may have had some kind of religion, though this is still debated. The skull of a cave bear that kept within a stone chest in a cave supposedly inhabited by Neanderthals. The cave bear skull was either some kind of trophy or some kind of tribal god. The Neanderthals also buried their dead, and a few burial sites were found with offerings. This not only shows care, but shows some kind of culture. In terms of creativity-they had paint, yes, but this may actually have been used as body paint rather than something to dab on the walls of a cave. But there has been an interesting find by scientists-a bear bone with a row of holes penetrated into it. This may have been a flute, which scientists suspect may have been made by Neanderthals. It's also been proven that they can show a display of emotions-aggression, empathy, sympathy etc. Basically, they would have shown the same emotions that we feel. When our species arrived, with our advanced technology, Neanderthals had tools which in some cases were more efficient than ours. For example, when trying to cut something as hard as leather, Neanderthals had larger tools that got the job done far more quickly than our smaller, more nimble tools did. Yet Neanderthals may have shown some kind of appreciation for our technology and tried to copy some of them-for example, they tried to make throwing spears and started to use ochre in their burials. Language, culture, emotion, inventiveness and the willingness to try out new techniques and technology was something these Neanderthals had, and it's these things that show high intellegence. So overall, scientists might just be able to agree that Neanderthals were as smart as humans today.

They are either boring or do not catch peoples attention
Either they have a faster metabolism or they work out a lot.
So they can either torment you or help you so be careful
Either climate change, or competition from Cro-Magnon man (modern humans), or a combination of both. Scientists propose that the Neanderthals were stocky and likely to be forest dwellers, getting food and shelter from the dense forests of Europe. As the climate changed and forests receded the taller, leaner modern humans were better able to cope. The last Neanderthals probably lived around southern Spain. There is genetic evidence that modern humans and Neanderthals interbred. This means that all humans apart from those of recent African ancestry have some Neanderthal genes. Africans do not as their ancestors did not leave Africa.
