Please. This material is fascinating. Don’t let the idiotic comments stop you from posting this material.

Homo antecessor is very interesting from the Neanderthal/Homo sapiens perspective.

I wonder if a complete or nearly complete skeleton has ever been found?

Thanks ZULU for the kind remarks!

Usually the larger, tougher bones survive as fossils, and the more gracile ones (hands, feet, hyoid bones) are rarer.
