📢New article out on the cannibalized Neandertals from Goyet - Transdisciplinary work integrating detailed morphometric analysis of highly fragmented bones 👏@quentin-cosnefroy.bsky.social, paleogenetics, and isotope analysis shows Neandertal females and children were victims of selective cannibalism!
Did Neandertals choose their prey when practicing cannibalism?🍖
Check out our new study, just published in Scientific Reports - @natureportfolio.nature.com!
We provide the strongest evidence to date for a highly selective cannibalism at the end of Neandertal lineage, 41-45.000 years ago.
