Neanderthals built some of the world’s earliest constructions, which were just found deep in a French cave.
Circular heated structures built by Neanderthals have been discovered deep inside a cave in France and are now among the world’s oldest known human-made constructions, a new study has found.
The structures, dated to around 176,000 years ago and described in the journal Nature, provide evidence that Neanderthals were clever about using fire, had complex spatial organizational abilities, and explored at least one extensive cave system.
