The article seems to be more about J. Tyler Faith than his discovery or Neanderthals.

Also: "Neanderthals dropped out of existence between 40,000 and 50,000 years ago."

Not true, 27,000 year old Neanderthals skeletons have been found.

Early humans flocked to reindeer meat when the temperature dropped, J. Tyler Faith discovered.

obviously global warming/climate change caused this. as proof of it, the average temperature where I am has dropped 50 degrees in just 6 months..

They’re the ones that discovered, and passed down through the ages, the art of sticking straw in the cake to see if it was done.

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve
Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

Interesting show on PBS I saw once. About these folks that live in Northern Russia, almost up to the arctic circle.

They herd reindeer. Only reindeer. They have no agriculture of any kind.

The ONLY thing that grows there is the lichen. The ONLY thing that will eat the lichen is the reindeer.

And the folks that herd and process the reindeer are TOTALLY dependent on them. They use everything they can get from the reindeer, they even eat the eyeballs and burn reindeer dung for fuel and cooking.

The thing that struck me the most was how no-nonsense the people seemed. Ain’t alot of song and dance up there. Pretty sparse existence. And they were round. Short and round. Short round folks maintain their heat best.
