This image released by the Italian Culture Ministry shows a cave near Rome where fossil findings were discovered, shedding new light on how the Italian peninsula was populated and under what environmental conditions. The Italian Culture Ministry announced the discovery Saturday, May 8, 2021, saying it confirmed that the Guattari Cave in San Felice Circeo, where a Neanderthal skull was discovered in 1939, was "one of the most significant places in the world for the history of Neanderthals."

I remember a teen in High School who looked EXACTLY like a LIFE or National Geographic rendition of a Neanderthal man.
He even had rotted teeth.

” Anthropologist Mauro Rubini said the large number of remains suggest a significant population of Neanderthals, "the first human society of which we can speak."

You can tell they are Neanderthals because the remains are unmasked and not socially distanced.

“interbred with modern humans”

I worked with one or two neanderthals.

These cousins of ours would roam the Palatine hills and spear the wild boars....soon they opened up pork stores. The women folk would pick wild beans and extrude a paste from wild grasses, the predecessors of wheat and rye. They would combine them into a dish called Pasta Fagioli. The men would make sauseech and Braciole

It gets complicated...

They noted that fossilized animal remains found in the cave—elephant, rhinoceros and giant deer, among others—shed light on the flora and fauna of the area and its climactic history.

Now we have to ask how did packs of hyena's get elephants, rhinoceros and giant deer into the cave...

Page - 48 - EARTH IN UPHEAVAL

... Buckland was one of the great authorities on geology of the first half of the nineteenth century. In a cave in Kirkdale in Yorkshire, eighty feet above the valley, under a floor covering of stalagmites, he found teeth and bones of elephants, rhinoceroses, hippopotami, horses, deer, tigers (the teeth of which were “larger than those of the largest lion or Bengal tiger*’), bears, wolves, hyenas, foxes, hares, rabbits, as well as bones of ravens, pigeons, larks, snipe, and ducks. Many of the animals had died “before the first set, or milk teeth, had been shed.”...
