Talk:Neanderthal
Spelling[edit]
This edit introduced a spelling which is not supported by Wikipedia ("Neanderthal" or technically Homo (sapiens) neanderthalensis refers to the species, while "Neandertal" refers to the region where the fossils were found). I don't think the undo link will work for that edit, so is it okay for me to proceed with a manual cleanup? --Pentium5dot1|t~^_^~c 03:56, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Content suggestions[edit]
- We need some more serious images, such as actual Neanderthal skulls, "full-body" reconstructions of Neanderthals, etc. See the Wikipedia article. Make sure that any non-skeletal pictures are serious forensic reconstructions and not modern humans in costume.

- We need to discuss why, although Neanderthals had larger cranial capacities than modern humans, they did not demonstrate superior intelligence (e.g., many of the tools made by Neanderthals are things they could have learned from Homo sapiens).

I realize that the article already briefly mentions cold climate and intelligence, but the latter should be discussed in more detail.
I will work on this a little myself as time and inspiration permit. --Pentium5dot1|t~^_^~c 04:14, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
