Neanderthals vanished from Earth about 40,000 years ago. Exactly what drove them to extinction, however, remains a mystery, with their disappearance variously attributed to anything from climate change to inferior cognitive abilities or even cannibalism.
When air is sucked into the tube, however, harmful bacteria from the throat can be carried along too. This is not such a problem in adults, because the Eustachian tube is oriented vertically and it is difficult for pathogens to rise upwards to reach the middle ear. For Neanderthals that drop-off might never have come. Dr Pagano and his team examined three well-preserved adult Neanderthal skulls, two of which came from Italy and the third from Gibraltar. Their measurements, reported in the, indicate that the Eustachian tube was horizontal in all three, suggesting adult Neanderthals may have been as likely to develop ear infections as today’s infants.
I initially thought it was an image in a criminal courtroom drawn by the the courtroom artists. I thought “why is an ape testifying “
Please they are still around....
Looks like my neighbor
If it’s because of their natural ear construction they wouldn’t even had existed, wouldn’t even had a chance to start with.
Sure it was some kind of war?
Illegal immigration of homosapiens into Neanderthal territory

I thought it was Cro Magnons who drove Neanderthals to extinction.
there's a few left in the democratic party
Tory austerity.
mtchknght8 Well you say these things...

Seriously doubt it. It's much more likely the immune system would handle this with zero to few issues.
This is total CRAP
They went transformative and put all thier eggs in one basket and Homosapiens took it.
Probably climate change!
I have this wild opinion that all humans for all time have actually cared about their hairs appearance and their clothing and thus never looked unkempt or in skin loin cloths like modern illustrators depict them to make us feel superior.
Ils n'avaient pas Greta pour les sauver des changements climatique
They saw the future world created by homosapiens and collectively said, “I’m out”.
You are still around so they r not extinct
Brexit !
It was too many streaming services.
SE PARECE A diego fernández RT
Sounds not logical, I think they could be prone to any infection considering their living conditions. Sometimes scientific findings are exaggerated.
*led*
What?
Nope they alive and well--
Not tonight Josephine, I have an earache...
Did they read The Economist?
They were not doomed or die off!!! They evolved with other humanoids. Europeans have 1-4% of their DNA. So, we still exist! And we want our land back. LOL
Could these learning from neanderthals perhaps help us to slow down time?
Does trump and his ilk suffer from earaches? Just curious.
Great, you tease us with a tweet then don't let us read the full article without payment. OK, good bye Economist!
The more I read bout evolution, the less convince Im. This stuff build one assumption onto another, onto another. And the danger of that is by the time u reach u conclusion, u are in no mans land.
Is it wrong to curse the remaining Conservatives abd Brexit party with earache?
Homo sapiens!
This climate change you talk about, hmmmm...🤔 sounds like it’s been from natural causes ( volcanos ) since the beginning of time. Did the Neanderthal liberal protest dinosaur farts ? 😂😂👍🏻
Competition with our cromagon ancestors
Their addiction to social media, fast food, and meth didn't help either.
it is same why by the disappear of mammoths
Extinct? Can’t be. So who’s governing 🇬🇧?
im startin to believe maybe humans were responsible..we seem to have a knack for killing things to be number one
Made up story of the day
You what? They died because of a puzzle?
They are not extinct, some of them are in the Democratic Party right now.
A new analysis explains that what was nudging Neanderthals to their doom was their mullet NeanderthalNews neandertal10000 Neandertal1
The homo sapiens exterminated them and continuing to so with any form of life that they do not consider sapiens!
Eating TO MANY BONES
Mother nature gave them there chance, they was slow to innovate, then we got our shot and we seceeded...
It's very difficult to find an explanation for a lie.
An inability to cope with climate change.
AIDS.
Neanderthals got it on with the cool Homo Sapiens that came up from Africa. The Homo Sapiens became dominate but Neanderthal DNA is still carried by many of European descent.
Otitis Media?
They still exist. They’re called Trump supporters
Nice to retain a 40k years history.
I’m surprised it took you so long to mention climate change...
Search صاعقہ in Quran...
They're actually not extinct. There are about 60 million living in the U.S. They watch Fox News and support Trump.
sonaliranade Maybe they didn't learn Hindi🤷♂️ HindiForUnityDebate
It was the proliferation of grievance studies.
Many humans still have Neanderthal DNA.
Blood transfusion from young to old would be good when it motivates them, including in productive, useful, dignified life purposes. This is life, this is new blood, perspectives.
Why would i want to slow down the ageing process? I don’t even want to be here past 80/85.
poor bastards.. trapped in illusions.
Quite impressive news indeed for humanity transformation but remember monkey & pig are original shape of humans due environmental change they seems like this!
