Neanderthal couple hunting, artwork
Neanderthal couple hunting. Artwork of a stone knife being used by a Neanderthal woman to cut open and skin a seal that has been killed with the spear held by the man at left. Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) inhabited Europe and western Asia between 230, 000 and 29, 000 years ago. They did not use complex tools but had mastery of fire and built shelters. It is thought that they had language and a complex social structure, living in small family groups and hunting for food. It is not known why Neanderthals became extinct, but one theory is that they were outcompeted by modern humans (Homo sapiens)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork depicts a Neanderthal couple engaged in the ancient practice of hunting. The image showcases the remarkable skills and resourcefulness of these prehistoric humans, who inhabited Europe and western Asia thousands of years ago. In this scene, a Neanderthal woman expertly wields a stone knife to cut open and skin a seal that has been successfully killed by her male companion's spear. Neanderthals, although lacking complex tools, possessed an impressive mastery of fire and built shelters for their small family groups. They had intricate social structures and are believed to have communicated through language. However, despite their adaptability and survival techniques, they eventually became extinct. One prevailing theory suggests that modern humans outcompeted Neanderthals for resources, leading to their demise. This thought-provoking artwork invites us to reflect on our shared history with these fascinating beings who once roamed the Earth alongside our ancestors. As we gaze upon this illustration against a white background, we are transported back in time to witness the skillful act of hunting performed by our ancient relatives. It serves as a reminder of how far humanity has come in terms of technological advancements while also highlighting the importance of understanding our past for shaping our future.
