Neanderthals could be brought back within 20 years — but is it a good idea ? [ Nope ]
...with today's technology, we cannot bring back Neanderthals. But even if future advances allow it, should we !? [ They will want Europe and Caucasia as homelands ]
Scientists Could Bring Back Neanderthals Within 20 Years — But At What Cost ?
Neanderthals could walk among us within 20 years — but would reviving our extinct cousin rewrite science or unleash an ethical nightmare ? [ Yes ]
In new PBS series 'Human,' anthropologist Ella Al-Shamahi explores how humans came to dominate Earth
Charts humanity's evolutionary odyssey. We sat down with her to discuss the path of our species out of Africa to global hegemony.
When Homo sapiens first emerged in Africa some 300,000 years ago, we did not roam the planet alone...
■ ] Our species lived alongside at least six, and possibly more:
other human species, from Homo erectus, the first hominin species to venture out of Africa; to Neanderthals and Denisovans, contenders for our closest relatives; --- } all the way to Homo floresiensis — less than 4-foot-tall (1.2 meters) "'hobbits"' who lived on the Indonesian island of Flores. Let alone other species like : non-hominin hominids such as : The Meganthropus...etc.
It's an origin story that Ella Al-Shamahi, a British Arab paleoanthropologist, presenter and explorer, often likens to the Lord of the Rings. Yet, despite its intriguing details, it's also one she says we don't talk about enough...
Creepy; attached like an Impaled Vampire !
''' A new dating of the minerals that surrounded and grew over the mysterious Petralona skull places its age at 277,000 years at least – and suggesting it is a member of a primitive, extinct hominid that lived alongside Homo neanderthalensis... '''
[ '' From a morphological point of view," writes a team led by geochronologist Christophe Falguères of the Institute Of Human Paleontology in France.
The Petralona hominin forms part of a distinct and more primitive group than Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, and the new age estimate provides further support for the coexistence of this population alongside the evolving Neanderthal lineage in the later Middle Pleistocene of Europe '' ]
