Neanderthal Extinction: Blood Group Incompatibility as a Contributing Factor
A new study suggests that blood group incompatibility between Neanderthals and modern humans, specifically a rare Rh factor in Neanderthals causing neonatal hemolytic disease in mixed offspring, may have contributed to Neanderthal extinction.

Oldest Homo Sapiens DNA Reveals Interbreeding with Neanderthals
A study published in Nature reveals the oldest known Homo sapiens DNA, sequenced from 45,000-year-old remains in Germany, showing interbreeding with Neanderthals around 1,500 years prior and that some lineages died out.

Turtle-Shaped Sculpture Found in Manot Cave Sheds Light on Ancient Rituals
A 28kg, 11-inch turtle-shaped rock sculpture, carved over 35,000 years ago, was discovered in Israel's Manot Cave, suggesting ritualistic practices by early homo sapiens in a secluded chamber within the cave.

Neanderthal Genes Crucial to Human Survival and Global Expansion
New genetic research reveals that early modern humans outside Africa repeatedly went extinct until interbreeding with Neanderthals conferred immunity to new diseases, enabling their survival and eventual global spread approximately 48,000 years ago.

Neanderthal Gene Inheritance in Modern Humans: Timing, Distribution, and Adaptive Benefits
A study analyzing 334 genomes reveals that most Neanderthal gene inheritance in Eurasians occurred between 50,500 and 43,500 years ago, with East Asians exhibiting a higher percentage. Beneficial genes relate to immunity, skin pigmentation, and metabolism, indicating adaptation to diverse environmen...
