NORTH 02: The Story of Our Species episodes
Neanderthal - Ancient Human
•
Explore the fascinating world of the Neanderthals in this episode. Discover their origins, genetic relationships, and evolution alongside humans. We delve into their distribution, anatomy, and unique features such as their diet, tool use, and potential for cannibalism. Learn about their adaptations to climate, use of clothing and shelter, and even seafaring abilities. The episode also discusses their social structure, language, interaction with Homo sapiens, and eventual extinction. Finally, we consider the Neanderthal genome's presence in modern humans.
