Oxford research traces the evolutionary history of kissing, revealing Neanderthals likely locked lips with humans. Discover the surprising origins of this intimate behaviour.
A new University of Oxford study suggests Neanderthals likely kissed and shared saliva with early modern humans, reshaping our understanding of ancient intimacy.
Groundbreaking research suggests Neanderthals didn't face true extinction but were genetically assimilated into Homo sapiens. Discover how our ancient ancestors live on in us today.
Groundbreaking analysis of 100,000-year-old bones from Israel's Skhul Cave provides compelling new evidence that early humans and Neanderthals interbred much earlier than previously believed, challenging our understanding of human evolution.
Groundbreaking DNA analysis reveals our human ancestors interbred with Neanderthals a staggering 250,000 years ago, forcing a complete rethink of our evolutionary timeline and the resilience of Neanderthal DNA in modern humans.
Groundbreaking study suggests Neanderthals may have included insect larvae in their diet, challenging previous assumptions about their eating habits.
New research suggests Neanderthals may have deliberately consumed maggots as a protein-rich food source, challenging our perceptions of their dietary habits.
Archaeologists uncover 55,000-year-old skull in Israel, shedding new light on early human migration and Neanderthal interactions.
Groundbreaking research suggests Neanderthals were selective about their diet, showing preferences similar to modern humans.
