Actually I believe the 500 pound bench which is 2.7 times the Neanderthal's bodyweight might be an exaggeration or an inaccurate estimate I believe a 2 bodyweight bench is a more reasonable estimate when looking at other primates like chimps

[@efnissien]

I worked with a guy who genuinely looked like a Neanderthal - slightly shorter, stocky. One day i was sitting reading something like nat geo magazine, when I spotted a full page picture of a Neanderthal with the caption along the line of 'you could sit next to a Neanderthal without actually noticing much difference.' I looked over the top of the nat geo, and it my colleague was in profile, just like the picture, and the similarity was stunning.

I saw a paper that argued Neanderthals basically couldn't throw or use projectile weapons very well, due to the sturdy structure of their shoulders and arms. They had to approach prey and kill it up close, which explains why so many fossils feature injuries from animals. It also might help explain how humans who could throw spears or use bows eventually out-competed or replaced them.

[@algorithmgeneratedanimegir1286]

Hands stay winning.

[@MisterPeckingOrder]

I think the abundance of Neanderthal DNA in modern humans relative to the distance of time suggests they were assimilated more than anything. Neanderthals always struggled with numbers and humans were new to the dangerous lands the Neanderthals lived in so cooperation would have been mutually beneficial. Humans have access to ranged weapons but we were less physically powerful so traveling with Neanderthals to hunt could have increased survival rates and success. When they saw their offspring were viable and well suited from both our adaptations they also would have had more incentive to assimilate.

@@MisterPeckingOrder Can you tell what specific traits/ adaptations made the offspring of Neanderthals and early humans more viable?

[@totalherenow]

Anthropologist here. Remember that humans living at the same time as the Neanderthals were almost as strong as they were. Neanderthals are thought to have required about 5000 kcal/day and humans back then around 3600-4200. So, we weren't quite as robust as they were, but pretty close. That robusticity was lost in humans from 45kya to 13kya.

[@MemeGodAzul]

Not an expert here. Sources from certified dietitians though. I heard that running the whole day vs walking sometimes or sleeping the whole say is still 2K-3000 calories bc calories r lost due to body stress inside not outside as much. So, they likely went extinct to hunger in the ice age.

Well, technically speaking, we have many species in every race: Caucasians vary from Netherlands to southern Ural Russia just as from Finland to roughly "white" people of France and Spain. Negroids differ from Sudanic to Ethiopian just as from Algerian to "black" people of South Africa. Asians are quite different from Japanese(the most closed on itself group) to Malaysians just as Kazakh is distinctively differs from Korean. Interbreeds are different as well: "semitic" Arabs and Jews do not quite look as "Persian" heritage Iranian despite being quite close to each other up to few millennia ago. Damn, even Northern and Southern Koreans differ physically(mostly due to the former being underfed which leads to height and weight reduction)! So we were not like orcs and elves. We literally have their DNA parts in ours! Try to impregnate even modern chimp or orangutan with your semen - you'll fail(ECO, you filthy punk!

[@garyk.nedrow8302]

The Neaderthals were certainly a separate species, but they were not "freaks of nature." They were simply adapted to a different ecological niche: they hunted from ambush using thrusting weapons because they could not run long distances; their brains were probably organized to interpret complex physical cues useful to hunting (sight, smell, hearing) rather than to think abstract thoughts; they lived in isolated clans and did not form social or trading networks because food and resources were scarce. They are correctly classified as a separate species, but they should probably be re-classified as a separate genus from modern homo sapiens.

[@Celadil]

one thing you didnt mention: it could be outdated data by now but in my studies (archaeology) I learned that neanderthals were anatomically not as good at throwing as sapiens, due to their skeletal structure. this was suggested as a possible reason for their extinction, as sapiens were believed to be more efficient hunters

​@@The_Savage_Wombatsapiens has bows 70,000 years ago and likely brought the technology with them to Europe. We probably used throwing spears before that. Neanderthals didn't hunt using ranged weapons, which is why they have higher incidences of traumatic injury.

[@melanoc3tusii205]

Using a bow has very little to do with throwing; a Neanderthal would probably do pretty well with them if they were present. It would have been very interesting if they had survived past the development of agriculture and entered into the historical record in larger social groups; advantages for hunting aside, much pre-modern combat exhibited progression away from ranged weaponry and towards more lethal close combat in step with sociopolitical centralisation. That suggests some considerable advantages to the Neanderthals in many scenarios of agrarian warfare.

[@The_Savage_Wombat]

This is really interesting to me. My dad's family lived in the deep woods bordering Norway and Sweden for generations (lots of inbreeding up on there xD), before the trail runs cold where an ancestor came from Finland. Primarily they were hunters, with one of them being a bear hunter who famously survived only wounding a bear and then killing it in close combat. He's in the Elverum museum in Norway. Dad sometimes seems superhuman - people will be in shock at the bursts of speed he can move at when there's an emergency. It's almost impossible to keep up with. People have compared it to feral animals. One non-disprovable by people being excited in such a situation is when he repeatedly pulled his finger out of the way of the little thing (which is springloaded) they use for fingertip bloodtests when he heard the click. The nurses were blown away. *And* he was on valium. Lots. Of valium. (Fear of needles) He heals ridiculously, with three clean breaks in his jaw and several cracks unveiled when he had x-rays for a cyst. He'd just held his hand under his jaw for a few days when chewing, he told the doctor and (except for the pain) it was fine. Then there's the fact that we gravitate heavily towards meat, and when I moved to my mom - where we couldn't afford much meat, but definitely enough that with milk and eggs it was a good diet - I developed vitamin B12 deficiency. When years alter I became vegetarian I got seriously ill from it. And lacto-ovo-vegetarians *should* be fine, plus I supplemented. So now I chug B12. xD I really need to get him to take some genetic tests. At least one, but I don't know which is most reliable. Oh yeah. And his vision is great. He would practice shooting the brown part off matches, balanced in the distance. It's almost a shame he got out of the compulsory military training.

If you have vitamin B12 defiency you shouldnt take pills for it. The problem is, your diggestive system doesnt process it well enough to maintain a good level. You should consider having it with shots. Directly into a muscle is normal. Here in the Netherlands there is a special clinic for B12, theyll teach you to shoot it every couple of days. The clinic is member of our healthcare system so its approved by the government. Most other hospitals tell you to take pills wich often dont work well enough. A low level of B12 is no joke and could cause plenty of problems including mania, depression and other mental health issues which are often falsely diagnosed because shrinks dont look at your blood work.

Especially in the case of very old early humans who lived through extremely traumatic injuries. The fact that someone could live to old age with extreme injuries means that there were also community factors to support them that led to them being able to survive for so long even with physical disabilities.

But they were 165cm (5'5'') 40000 years ago i mean humans were 165cm tall still 10k years ago. They might be taller or at least just as tall as us these days if we had coexisted. Would be pretty cool to have those walking tanks around. Alltho they could probably knock our heads clean off our shoulders with their punches.

Bruh I don’t wanna hear anyone over 6ft complain lol

[@caesarxi1303]

To call them short kings is anachronic. They'd probably be 2m+ tall as of today. Sapiens were the smaller/shorter ones.

I clicked because I thought this was going to be a Neanderthal parody of Kendrick’s song, and I stayed because the content was better
