Neanderthal Man 'never walked in northern Europe'

Nonsense. I've seen pictures of Michael Moore, Gerhardt Schroeder and Jacques Chirac in northern Europe!

Neanderthal Man 'Never Walked In Northern Europe'

Maybe not, but I've been to Italy and southern France plenty of times.

Anything will smell if it has smelts in it.

By that time, Homo sapiens was already well-established and the Neanderthals were extinct.

And considering present day situation do you really take this as truth?....

LoL's!~

Neanderthal Man 'Never Walked In Northern Europe'

LOL! When I first read this all I could think was:
"What happened? Did some lawyers representing some of Neatherthal Man's descendants
file claims for reparations or land?"

Isn't Neanderthal Man named after a town in Germany?

Puzzling gaps in the findings

The chart above was published in the "Spiegel-Online" story referenced in the original post.

The Findings in dark red are from Professor Reiner Protsch von Zieten, those highlighted in yellow are the newest deteriminations. The blue figures are those determined by the placement of the finds in sedimentary layers (to my best interpretation).

According to the original article, the false readings have caused upheaval in areas where new theories were developed based on Protsch's findings. The hybrid theory, basically saying that a neanderthal mated with a homo sapiens, was based on the Hahnöfersand skull. Protsch dated it at 35,000 years, now it's determined to have been a 7,500 year old duck hunter on the Elbe.

Story is here, in German, unfortunately too long for me to want to translate:

I don't know the latitude of the Neander River valley, but it must be north of the 47th parallel because all of Germany is...that would put the Neanderthal in Northern Europe. Therefore it would appear that the Neanderthal people walked in Northern Europe. But maybe only people who served on Swift Boats in the Neander River are allowed to express an opinion.

Ha! Never existed in Europe?

I suggest they carbon date half the men in Irish pubs! *LOL*

Neanderthal Man 'never walked in northern Europe' - He skipped. The Neanderthals were great skippers, the modern game of hopscotch (paleolithic in nature) is decended from them.

Heh heh... He must have been that guy on eBay selling the monkey skulls. I was a little mystified by this -- "Yet recent research at Oxford University's carbon-dating laboratory has suggested that they date back a mere 7,500 years. By that time, Homo sapiens was already well-established and the Neanderthals were extinct." If Neandertal remains (if that's what they are -- perhaps they've never been definitively identified through their anatomy) are 7,500 years old, the Replacement (master race) hypothesis is shown to be twaddle. Not that it isn't twaddle, just that this could be the smoking gun. :'D

"doubt has been cast on the carbon dating of skeletons by a leading German anthropologist. "

i heard a story about a research site getting sent refrigerated cow bones from a beef manfaturing cite by a group of kids. the research concluded that it was in fact, 1,800 years gone bovine.

unfortunately, this was a story i heard long ago, but the gist i got was this: carbon dating is about as accurate as a Michael Moore film.

Goodness! Does this mean that Carbon Dating is NOT accurate??

A 27,000 year old skull that still smells?

For that matter, a 200 year old skull that still smells??
