Amazing New Scientific Study Sheds Light on Human Intelligence

Описание: How Intelligent Were Neanderthals? Modern Human vs Neanderthals. Long represented as knuckle-dragging brutes, recent research has begun to establish an image of Neanderthals as intellectual humans who created art, played the flute, buried their dead, and wore feathers and eagle talons. Indeed, The brains of Neanderthals and early Homo sapiens were very similar in volume—roughly 90 cubic inches. But that doesn't imply they were equal. Nevertheless, One tangible fact is that wherever homo sapiens migrated, they essentially outcompeted other human species in hunting prowess. Some scientists deny the claim that Neanderthals practiced art, and there are few examples, including one discovered in the back of Gorham's Cave in Gibraltar. However, Did Neanderthals' relative lack of artistic abilities contribute to their extinction? According to new study, While the dubious artistic prowess of our prehistoric cousins may not appear to be insignificant, new research has discovered that it is directly tied to their less advanced hunting ability, which may eventually explain why they went extinct. So What caused the difference in abilities between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals? There is almost minimal evidence for neanderthal art, and the few disputed specimens are mostly primitive straight lines with no identifiable images. Scientists now believe this simplicity is linked to a lack of hand-eye coordination, as a result of their diet of slow-moving prey.
