Article seems unclear if the 'human' bone was Homo sapiens sapiens or Homo neanderthalensis.

If the former, this could go a long way to explain why Neanderthal died out: Homo sapiens got sick of the Neanderthal's terror and wiped them all out.

If the latter, then Neanderthal man seemed destined fo destruction.

"The bone likely came from a Neanderthal, as only they were found at Mousterian deposits at La Quina.."
