Neandertals traveled at least two evolutionary paths on their way to extinction around 40,000 years ago , a new study suggests.
An adult male’s partial skeleton discovered in France contains genetic clues to a Neanderertal line that evolved apart from other Europeans .
The possibility of a long-lasting, isolated population in southwestern Europe supports the idea that these hominids had their own, complex evolutionary history, with local extinctions and migrations, just like us.
Long-term isolation would have resulted in Thorin inheriting a greater number of short DNA segments containing identical gene pairs than reported in the new study, Lalueza-Fox says. Isolating more of Thorin ’s DNA or collecting genetic remnants from other fossil members of his lineage will clarify the evolutionary story of these close-knit Neandertals, he says..
