Recent fossil analysis is reshaping our understanding of Neanderthal origins, questioning long-held assumptions about their ...

New study challenges the theory that Neanderthals originated after an evolutionary event that implied the loss of part of ...

Neanderthal fossils show a major population drop 110,000 years ago. Researchers link this to reduced genetic diversity.

For thousands of years, Neanderthals flourished across Eurasia. But new research suggests their genetic diversity plummeted ...

Urciuoli and his team investigated the evolution of the semicircular canals in the Neanderthal clade using diffeomorphometry (DMorph), an approach that allows direct comparison of continuous surfaces ...

Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon has said the PPP and its provincial government have explicitly declared that they are not going to allow the construction of six new canals on the Indus.

A recent study compared features of Neanderthals' inner ears across space and time to extrapolate what happened to them tens of thousands of years ago.

By comparing the shapes of the ear's semicircular canal in fossils from across Europe and western Asia with those in modern-day humans, the researchers could gauge the relative variety of body ...

The study, co-authored by Professor of Anthropology Rolf Quam and graduate student Brian Keeling, measured the morphological diversity in the semicircular canals, structures of the inner ear ...

Researchers examined the semicircular canals in the inner ear, which assist with balance. These structures are genetically controlled and remain unchanged from birth, making them useful for studying ...

Examination of semicircular canals of ear shows Neanderthals experienced 'bottleneck' event where physical and genetic variation was lost. A new study by an international team of scholars ...
