A Neanderthal pronouncing the letter E

Featured Replies

Incredible as in 'amazing', or 'not credible'?

'amazing' would be the implied meaning i think. i'm pretty sure thats one of the ones reconstructed using forensic techniques from a replica of the actual skulls.

I know this is science, but I found this amusing.

It's probably just me. :D

 

I'm more than a tiny bit skeptical... Are they just getting all of this from the hyoid and the ribcage? I can't imagine what else they would have to go on.

as from the recent find that Neanderthaals were red-heads.

 

and yes, amazing as in incredible,awe-inspiring, etc.

That kid wouldn’t be out of place at an AC/DC concert! :D

They got a computer to say 'E' like a species that was extinct thousands of years ago...who is funding this?
