Extinct people. Why did the Neanderthals die, and we survived

Only 28,000 years ago in the caves of the Gibraltar Strait ended the era of Neanderthals. We are used to considering them rude, awkward and not too smart people, which our dexterous and cunning ancestors easily prevailed over ... But was it really so simple? If we consider the pedigree of mankind as a scheme with intersecting branches, it turns out that there is a lot of in common between individual species of people. In addition, most of the signs of the so -called cognitive revolution were inherent in Neanderthals. Clive Finleyon is sure that the fate of Neanderthals and "Modern People" determined environmental factors. If the climate had not changed in our favor about 50 million years ago, everything could have turned out differently
