"Rewriting Early Human History: Coexistence of Modern Humans and Neanderthals Revealed"

Researchers in Germany discovered bones and artifacts in a cave, leading to a reevaluation of early human history. Analysis of bone fragments revealed that Homo sapiens were present in the region 47,500 years ago, much earlier than previously thought. This challenges the belief that they only entered Europe during warmer periods. The findings also suggest that Homo sapiens coexisted with Neanderthals for thousands of years before their extinction, painting a different picture of prehistoric human migration and adaptation to cold climates.
