Similar to contemporary humans, Neanderthals crafted and utilized bone tools for their daily needs. Were anatomically modern humans the only ones who knew how to turn bone into tools? A new discovery at the Chez-Pinaud-Jonzac Neanderthal site by an international research team puts this question to
New excavations at the Chez-Pinaud-Jonzac site reveal that Neanderthals, like modern humans, had a diverse bone tool industry, challenging assumptions about their technological and cognitive limitations. Were anatomically modern humans the only ones who knew how to turn bone into tools? A new discovery at the Chez-Pinaud-Jonzac Neanderthal site by an international research team puts this question to rest.
Their absence from Neanderthal sites has led to the assumption that these groups did not produce bone tools and implements, sometimes inferred to reflect cognitive differences between the two populations. Since Neanderthals did not know how to process this raw material, they were limited to picking up bone fragments amongst butchery remains, using them uniquely as retouchers for shaping flint tools.
