Neanderthal livesZME Science

Scientists have long known that Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans (AMHs) interbred, but the precise locations where these encounters occurred remain elusive.
A new study shed light on one possible geographic zone: the Zagros Mountains , a region stretching across present-day Iran , Iraq , and Turkey .
They suggest that this rugged, remote region was more than just a place of passage.
It was a meeting ground where two human species intertwined.
Researchers hope to find even more clues about the lives of our ancient ancestors.
These mountains may hold many more surprises — buried in the rocks, hidden in the caves, waiting for the moment when they can tell their stories.
