Neanderthals Resorted to Cannibalism in the Face of Climate Change
https://www.history.com/news/neandertha ... -discovery
We know that Neanderthals were carnivores, with a diet that consisted primarily—if not exclusively—of meat.
But a new study by researchers in France suggests that around 120,000 years ago, when a period of sudden climate change wiped out many of the animals who made up their food supply, some Neanderthals resorted to cannibalism.
In the 1990s, the remains of six Neanderthals were found in Baume Moula-Guercy, a small cave in the Rhône valley in southern France. The remains, which belonged to two adults, two adolescents and two children, showed many of the tell-tale signs of cannibalism: according to Cosmos, the bodies had been completely dismembered, and the bones showed both cut marks left by stone tools and bite marks resembling ones left by Neanderthal, rather than animal, teeth.
Evidence of suspected Neanderthal cannibalism is not new. In addition to the remains found at Moula-Guercy, researchers have also uncovered bones bearing the signature marks of cannibalism at sites in Belgium, Spain and Croatia (though the Croatian remains were later shown to have been damaged by natural processes).
Anthropologist Helene Rougier displays some of the 96 bones and three teeth from five Neanderthal individuals found in the Belgium Goyet cave in 2016. Researchers have found the grisly evidence that the Neanderthals did not just feast on horses or reindeer, but also on each other.

Re: Seen in Print
An interesting and appreciated and intriguing posting, Hondo. I've enjoyed reading it. Thanks for the effort invoved.
Have scientists added to their view of whether Neanderthals and Cro-Magnon man lived simultaneously, at least for a while?

When we understand that each day isn’t one more day, but one less, we’ll start giving more value to the things that truly matter.

Well, that speaks volumes, on many levels and applications.

"Paint the her nails." Seems like the literacy level of some of the bogus Darkweb crappolla that comes my way occasionally, not to mention a society which appears to have quite a familiarity and ease with rats in the first place.

Yes Murph, Chinese toy factories should hire an English speaking English teacher to change Chinese product description into English.
Suppose they hired you. How would you translate the following into as few words as possible for package labeling?

My immediate thought goes to NYC,
.....Chinese toy factories should hire an English speaking English teacher to change Chinese product description into English.
Seems like a likely job for Murph to supplement his income.....

This is an outrage!!!!! Demand more to be produced; complain to the world!
Or, don't. I'm pretty sure I'm not succeeding at really caring all that much,

Depending on how big it is, I would consider putting one on my layout; to keep the big ant company!

Re: Seen in Print
Interesting idea, Wayne. I think I would do it for the Chinese. It would keep me perky!
However, there is a significant problem: I don't speak a word of Chinese, except for the word "Ohio" (sp) (there's irony)
which I think means "Hello" in Chinese. Or was that Japanese?
Oivey.

Not a problem, the Chinese speak English. Just ask any employee at your new Chinese factory job to read the Chinese hype for the product to you in English, write down what he says, correct the English grammar, then send it back as a text message. No need to leave home, or the woods, for this job.

I would open a separate bank account for your weekly paycheck deposit.
The world has become smaller, it is more connected, the way we communicate, the way we work and the way we transfer money from person to person is ever evolving, so much has changed in the past decade! The traditional 9–5 office is dying out as more people are choosing to work remotely, which allows us access to a different kind of lifestyle, enabling us to do what we want from where we want via a mobile distributed network.
The International Payments Headache
Despite advances in technology, there is one pressing issue that is still causing a headache for both employers and employees of the remote community — cross-border international payments!
