Неандертальцы были совсем не милыми - раскрыто 75000-летнее убийство
Международная группа палеоантропологов исследовала останки неандертальца, жившего около 75 тысяч лет назад, и обнаружила на его костях следы смертельного ранения. Изучив лопатку индивида Shanidar-A, ученые из Кембриджского университета пришли к выводу, что этот архаический человек погиб от точного удара деревянным копьем в грудь. Результаты междисциплинарного исследования опубликованы в журнале Scientific Reports.
¿Qué se sabe de Shanidar A? Un estudio revela que este neandertal sobrevivió a un traumatismo y murió lanceado
Shanidar está considerado como uno de los yacimientos paleolíticos más importantes del mundo. Desde que comenzó a excavarse en 1957, se han hallado los restos de, al menos, una decena de neandertales de hace entre 50.000 y 75.000 años que demuestran que estos humanos tenían un comportamiento mortuorio complejo, intencional y simbólico. Y ahora también se sabe que se daban episodios violentos, de acuerdo con una nueva investigación.
Multifactorial drivers of spatial variation in human body form across modern China
Abstract Human body form reveals cumulative effects of ecological and socio-cultural factors. China’s provides an exceptional context for investigating these multifactorial influences, not only because of its extensive geographic and cultural diversity, but also because recent decades have been marked by rapid economic development, urbanisation, migration, and the population-level trauma of the Great Famine.
Estimating intralimb proportions for commingled remains
1 INTRODUCTION Commingled remains refer to human skeletal assemblages containing multiple individuals that are mixed, incomplete, and disarticulated, making it difficult to attribute specific bones to a particular individual (Adams & Byrd, 2014; Byrd & LeGarde, 2014, 2019; Nikita, 2014, 2017; Nikita & Karligkioti, 2019; Osterholtz, 2018; Ubelaker, 2014; Vaduvesković & Djuric, 2020).

Issues of theory and method in the analysis of Paleolithic mortuary behavior: A view from Shanidar Cave
Abstract Mortuary behavior (activities concerning dead conspecifics) is one of many traits that were previously widely considered to have been uniquely human, but on which perspectives have changed markedly in recent years. Theoretical approaches to hominin mortuary activity and its evolution have undergone major revision, and advances in diverse archeological and paleoanthropological methods have brought new ways of identifying behaviors such as intentional burial.
