This skull, ffound in Pestera cu Oase - the Cave with Bones - in southwestern Romania, includes features of both modern humans and Neanderthals, possibly suggesting that the two hominid species may have interbred thousands of years ago. The skull is discussed in a paper by Erik Trinkaus of Washington University in St. Louis. The report appears in Tuesday's issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Judging from the gaping hole in his skull, is it safe to say he didn't die of natural causes?

I just learned yesterday that when Vesuvius erupted, it's victim's brains first boiled and then exploded outward, which has absolutely nothing to do with this thread except that this post reminded me of that.

You know, I think that a rebuilt New Orleans should be renamed "Pompei" as the residents there seem intent upon living smack in the path of natural disaster.

Why not? I think they're toying with the idea of changing Malibu's name to Herculaneum....
