Neanderthal communities divided some of their tasks according to their sex. Grooves found in adult male and female teeth suggests that they carried out different tasks. Credit: CSIC Communications Department

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve
in local libraries
"Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

OK so they were just as smart as most animals and even insects. How much did this research cost us?

What about the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered Neanderthals??? What was their role in Neanderthal society?? Were they discriminated against by Neanderthal bigots????

...they took care of the sick persons, buried their deceased, ate seafood... Improperly prepared blowfish is probably what wiped them out.

So modern man, as opposed to Neanderthal/Cromagnon, survived because we were equipped for dental work. It all makes sense now.

The Neanderthals died out, didn’t they?
Modern humans, take warning.

Researchers state that the retouching of the edges of stone tools seems to have been a male task...
With their teeth?

So, instead of saying “iron my shirt”,
he said “chew my stick”?
