PDF-(BOOK)-The Smart Neanderthal: Bird catching, Cave Art, and the Cognitive Revolution

Since the late 1980s the dominant theory of human origins has been that a cognitive revolution C50000 years ago led to the advent of our species Homo sapiens As a result of this revolution our species spread and eventually replaced all existing archaic Homo species ultimately leading to the superiority of modern humansOr so we thoughtAs Clive Finlayson explains the latest advances in genetics prove that there was significant interbreeding between Modern Humans and the Neanderthals All nonAfricans today carry some Neanderthal genes We have also discovered aspects of Neanderthal behaviour that indicate that they were not cognitively inferior to modern humans as we once thought and in fact had their own rituals and art Finlayson who is at the forefront of this research recounts the discoveries of his team providingevidence that Neanderthals caught birds of prey and used their feathers for symbolic purposes There is also evidence that Neanderthals practised other forms of art as the recently discovered engravings in Gorhams Cave Gibraltar indicateLinking all the recent evidence The Smart Neanderthal casts a new light on the Neanderthals and the Cognitive Revolution Finlayson argues that there was no revolution and instead modern behaviour arose gradually and independently among different populations of Modern Humans and Neanderthals Some practices were even adopted by Modern Humans from the Neanderthals Finlayson overturns classic narratives of human origins and raises important questions about who we reallyare. 35 Bird Tables 3536 34 brPage 2br Code A01124 Qty RRP 57507699 Mini Bird Bath Frost resistant glazed ceramic bird bath Can be hung or 64257tted onto a support ring on Created by: .

Painters would go down in groups, because of how dangerous the caves could be. They would have to crawl through tight spaces with only torches to guide them. Painters would go down expecting to be there for quite some time- they would bring tools, brushes, pigments, torches (and flint to maintain fires), as well as food to sustain them. There is also evidence of scaffolding systems, so that projects could be continued over time.. CHAPTER X.
