    I’m 52, and it’s been fascinating to see how much the knowledge and information on Neanderthals has changed since I was a child. I first read Jean M. Auel’s fictional “Earth’s Children” series when in my late teens, and they were one of the things which first triggered an interest in anthropology, which in turn eventually led me to having a career in clinical psychology.
    I have to say, this was very well done! I’ve very much enjoyed watching all four of your videos (*edit*: on ancient humans), and it’s clear you put a great deal of work into all of them. Many people on platforms like this one often don’t put so much time, research & attention to detail into their work, so this series has been a refreshing change of pace. Thank you!

    • @solonkazos1379

      All the effort in this video is a compiled grouping of stories. None of them has any facts or evidence. In reality the Neanderthals had better DNA than we have today. They had better bone structures, larger heads, and lived a very long time. It is very likely they built the neolithic structures which have advanced machining we still can not duplicate today.
      So the old trope of the Neanderthal caveman is a false narrative. These people were advanced, and their buildings along with DNA prove it. You have a career in clinical psychology and yet you didn't know God created man. The DNA proves it.

      I just finished the first book in that series. The author spends way too much of the book telling us all of the research she learned rather than simply telling a story. Also, it's beyond ridiculous that the characters have no idea how people become pregnant. These are hunter-gatherers who live close to nature, and presumably, have at least a modicum of common sense. And, they don't speak either. Neaderthals were capable of speaking, although maybe that wasn't known when the book was published. I also didn't like how she left her son and he never shows up again in the other books. I wish now I'd only bought the first one and not the whole series at one time.

      @@SR-iy4gg The whole evolutionary concept is a fiction. They can cite all the articles they want , but it is just citing more peers from the evolutionary camp. Today we're getting to the point where even the stories don't add up. So evolution is dead, its been rejected by science at every level. Yet people still push the old trope.
      It looks like these Neanderthals were very smart. They likely built the neolithic structures we don't even have the tools to copy. They were literate, had governments, courts, schools, and many other things.
      Its best to start with the Bible timelines , because it has evidence all over the place.

    • @solonkazos1379
      @solonkazos1379 Před 2 lety +3

      @@SR-iy4gg Some of the evidence is in the bones. The Neanderthals had a much more robust bone structure. It is identical to today's man kind, but much better, much healthier.
      Example; The bone right above the eye sockets never stops growing. It doesn't grow fast, but the rate is about one half inch in 4 to 5 hundred years. Many of the Neanderthals have a large brow bone indicating they lived hundreds of years.
      I think the Bible timeline fits the evidence.
      So the Neanderthals were part of the first humans from Adam/Noah. These people were against the God of Noah even after the flood, they stood in idolatry . So these neolithic structures are part of large cities with King who create new gods. Like the Tower of Babel, stone hinge, Peru, India, China etc. They all came about in the same era of time.
      We have writings from Nimrod/Gilgamesh to Noah. These tablets are available in museums and can be seen online. Nimrod wanted Noah to support the building of the tower. Noah refused, before the war broke out the languages were confused and the neolithic period came to an end. Today we see Roman structures built on top of neolithic structures. The older is much more advanced building and engineering.
      The evidences are being gathered everyday. So the historical puzzle is filling in . There is so much more evidence to cover, but this isn't the best format for that. However I can answer some direct questions.

One of many. Just as it says in genesis. The earth was dark and void. Nothing God creates is dark and void. It was the start of a new age.. the one we live in.

    Awesome job! I had never heard of the hibernation idea, but it makes sense. I live in northern Alaska and when day length gets below 4 hours a day, I commonly lose a few days to falling asleep and not rousing for a few days. Thankfully, I normally am off work that time of year. They might not have hibernated the way ground squirrels do (super cooling their bodies for months on end), but sleeping for a couple of days, eating a bit and falling back asleep for a few days sound like a pretty nice way of getting through a winter.

      It reminds me of how on 'survivor' type shows, what seems to happen is the contestants get just enough of a 'habitation' set up so they can rest comfortably, and then set up just enough of some way/system to get enough food, and then spend the rest of the time kindof loafing around because you cant just expend calories nonstop.
      Now, the contestants on these shows are obviously in a different situation and don't work that hard at all because they see the light at the end of the tunnel, soon the show will end, or they can just quit if they want to, or things get too bad the show producers will sneak in food and water so noone dies. So they are quite a bit more lazy than our ancestors.
      But it still goes to show that humans will definately hunker down and basically "hibernate" when the going gets rough. Doing nothing, is a survival tactic. 🤣

      ​@@NOMAD-qp3dd another thing to consider is that the vast majority of people on those shows have significantly less knowledge compared to a full time hunter gatherer in a given area especially when it comes to the list of known local edible plants as well as how to find them. Without that type of ancestral knowledge combined with most of them not having a community and missing out on a lifetime of constantly practicing most of the skills relevant to survival in this context means that only a handful of people could do as well without modern technology as their pre agricultural counterparts and most of those people would still struggle in unfamiliar regions of the planet.

      @Giovanni Balbosa-Mc Intosh unfortunately that’s just one of the downsides of science. People like to cling to facts, especially ones they’ve held on to for a long time so they freak out when shit changes. People are still willing to go to war about Pluto being a planet, and some people still refuse to believe wolf packs didn’t have alphas. Those are just some trivial examples but it extends all the way up to the religious nuts who refuse to recognize that creationism has been thoroughly debunked and the radical atheists who screech about the Big Bang like it’s a confirmed fact and not just our best, but certainly incomplete theory. We all need to keep an open mind to new facts and ideas. The scientific method works so well at finding the facts because even when you’re wrong you’ve still learned a massive amount of information. If people were critical of misinformation, propaganda, and misconceptions and actually accepted peer reviewed sources then a whole lot of humanities most embarrassing and atrocious attributes and behavior wouldn’t be a thing

    When the nights get longer and it gets colder, we typically gain weight or at least are more sedentary, we are less social, we sleep more at night and our mood changes. Maybe these circadian rhythms are like a genetic precursor or remnants of a more drastic form of hibernation our species cousins (and ancestors bc interbreeding)

Abusing children and killing children for fun. Many think of it as they just didn't want to be tied down with kids. Selfish and self centered. They were constantly drawing pictures of themselves. Pictures of their meals. Pictures of trips to other lands. I don't see anything today like them, do you?

    Thanks. Enjoyed this thoroughly. I had my DNA examined and I proudly have a lot of Neanderthal lineage. They can trace it back 40,000 years to the Neanderthal Valley in Germany. Science is so cool. Thanks for your hard work.

      You should be proud, Neanderthals were an amazing civilization and way more advanced than a lot of people think. Neanderthals still live in us 💪

    One off the best I've heard on Neanderthals, you covered the topic very well .

    I couldn't begin to guess how many documentaries I have watched about the Neanderthal People.
    Many.
    This is the most in-depth and well researched piece I have seen on just about any subject.
    It's an inherently interesting subject but you have introduced an empathic, humanistic element that elevates the subjects and the production.
    Congratulations.

    I watch anything to do with paleontology or evolution, and this is by far the best overview of Neanderthal man that I have seen.
