They could communicate, they were part of our genus, they ate the same as us, they were Humanoid, many, many things.
No, Neanderthals and modern humans shared a common ancestor but evolved separately. Neanderthals are a distinct human species that lived in Europe and Asia before going extinct around 40,000 years ago. Modern humans, Homo sapiens, evolved in Africa and migrated out of the continent, eventually spreading and replacing Neanderthals.
No, this is a common misunderstanding. Neanderthals did live at the same time as our ancestors did and they also shared a common ancestry with modern humans however, they are not an ancestor of modern humans. They are in fact a different species.
the early modern humans lived a farming lifestyle while the neanderthals still were nomadic people
Yes, Neanderthals existed before Cro-Magnon humans. Neanderthals emerged around 400,000 years ago, while Cro-Magnon humans appeared around 40,000 years ago.
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.
Yes, humans interbred with Neanderthals in the past.
No, humans and Neanderthals are not the same species. Neanderthals were a separate species of hominins that lived alongside and interbred with early humans.
No, humans and Neanderthals shared a common ancestor but evolved separately. DNA analysis suggests that Neanderthals and modern humans interbred, however, the exact extent and impact of this interbreeding is still a topic of study among scientists.
No, Neanderthals and modern humans shared a common ancestor but evolved separately. Neanderthals are a distinct human species that lived in Europe and Asia before going extinct around 40,000 years ago. Modern humans, Homo sapiens, evolved in Africa and migrated out of the continent, eventually spreading and replacing Neanderthals.
Neanderthals and humans were able to mate because they were closely related species, sharing a common ancestor. This allowed for successful interbreeding and the passing on of genetic material between the two groups.
Neanderthals were a distinct species within the Homo genus, separate from modern humans (Homo sapiens). They lived in Eurasia and went extinct around 40,000 years ago. While they share a common ancestor with modern humans, they are not considered the same species.
No. European humans (Cro-Magnon) lived at the same time as the Neanderthals.
Neanderthals are early humans, therefore they are mammals
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.
Yes, scientific evidence suggests that Neanderthals interbred with early humans, as indicated by genetic studies showing that modern humans outside of Africa have Neanderthal DNA in their genomes.
No, this is a common misunderstanding. Neanderthals did live at the same time as our ancestors did and they also shared a common ancestry with modern humans however, they are not an ancestor of modern humans. They are in fact a different species.
